Pelvic floor strengthening: external pelvic floor exercise device (without accessory) vs Emy Trainer pelvic floor trainer
To strengthen your pelvic floor, some methods rely on external pelvic floor exercise devices, often without vaginal insertion: for example air-cushion devices, vibrating platforms or accessories placed between the thighs. These tools help you engage the pelvic area indirectly, through voluntary contractions or posture.
But without biofeedback or precise targeting, these methods can sometimes lack clarity and progression. By contrast, the Emy Trainer pelvic floor trainer offers targeted, self-guided and connected training, clinically validated, with personalised tracking via an app.
Between an indirect method and deeper training, which approach will help you achieve more results? Here’s the comparison.

Why choose a connected device like Emy Trainer to strengthen your pelvic floor?
External pelvic exercise devices can offer a gentle, non-insertive approach to muscle training. However, they often lack precision, tracking, and support. Their effectiveness depends a lot on posture, discipline, and the intensity you apply.

Thanks to its intuitive app, built-in reminders, and ergonomic design, it fits easily into women’s routines, even the busiest ones.
In short, for effective, practical, and long-lasting pelvic floor recovery, Emy Trainer remains a modern and reassuring solution.
