How does it work

Adjusting effective weight by changing inclination or torso
Exercises are performed in a relaxed sitting position which supports the back.
Sitting with the back supported rather than standing helps to isolate the a pelvic floor muscle contraction without using the abdominal muscles or buttocks.
The fallacy of standing (as with vaginal cones) is that it is far too easy to use other muscles to support weight.
A sitting position also allows the user to customize the weight of the product and regulate the intensity of the exercises.
By adjusting the sitting angle the affective weight of the FPT becomes infinitely variable (from 0% to 100%).
This gives complete control of the level of strength training, making it perfect for any woman regardless of age, physical limitations or muscle strength.
Another problem with vaginal cones is that they fail to work both long and short muscles.
The patent pending exercise for the FPT employs a 6 second contraction followed by 5 rapid contractions.
This series of long and short contractions provides exercise for both kinds of muscle fiber.

Why the Weight?

Prescribed Treatment Minutes per Week
1. Kegel's Work but Don't Work!
2. Less Time Involved for Measurable Results!
3. Stronger Muscles than any other product or method on the market!

Most physicians prescribe Kegel's because of strong clinical support.

AHCPR guidelines recommend them as the first modality of treatment to condition pelvic floor muscles for improving bladder control.

Even though Kegel's work everyone knows the problem associated with them… difficult to teach, and no one is willing to devote the time necessary do them.

The FPT is specifically designed to enhance and accelerate traditional pelvic floor exercises by the means of true resistant weight training.

The weight of the FPT has been specifically calculated to strengthen muscles at an accelerated rate. Results are seen in weeks rather than months. Not only are results seen faster, muscle strength is significantly greater.

Two weeks of Kegel's can not compare to two weeks of biofeedback weight training.

Recommended exercise times are 5 minutes every other day.
The best results are from women who exercise 10 minutes a day every day for two weeks and then cut back to the recommended 5 minutes every other day.

What is the difference between Vaginal cones and the FPT?

The FPT is the ONLY product on the market that actually teaches pelvic floor muscles to "lift weight" providing biofeedback and a reliable means of measuring progress.

How FPT is Effective
After partial insertion into the vagina the FPT automatically positions itself so that it sits between the Pelvic Floor Muscles.
The smaller end of the FPT is slightly visible just outside the vagina providing biofeedback for the user.
Women are able to "see and feel" when they perform a pelvic floor muscle contraction correctly.
The FPT product is pushed out of the vagina if the wrong muscles are used.
This provides additional biofeedback.
Because the unique shape of the FPT seats it between the muscle group (not on top) it cannot be misplaced within the vagina.
This insures proper placement every time.
As the user contracts the pelvic floor muscles, the sloped sides of the FPT cause it to rise up and into the vagina.
As the FPT is gently lifted with each contraction, the force of gravity pulling the FPT downward generates resistance.
The pelvic floor muscles do not simply hold the product in place -- a proper contraction forces the muscles to lift the weight.
This is true weight resistance training.
