General guide

Who is PelviX for? A guide to suitability

PelviX is a functional magnetic stimulation system that activates muscles in the pelvic floor and related core areas. It may be an option for adults with suitable training goals, after symptoms, medical history and contraindications have been reviewed.

Your needs come before the programme

The main question is whether the training goal fits your situation and whether the equipment is compatible with your medical history. Recognising a symptom is not enough to make that decision without a prior review.

For an explanation of the technology, read what PelviX is for. This guide focuses on people and the criteria to consider before starting.

Women at different stages of life

Motherhood, changes around menopause and everyday demands can prompt a conversation. Some women want to improve body awareness; others already have symptoms and need a healthcare assessment. Support should reflect that difference.

Start with our guide to the female pelvic floor, or explore postpartum care and menopause.

What about men?

For questions about support for men, continence and a history of surgery, read men have a pelvic floor too. Each person’s situation needs reviewing before an application.

When a review is needed before starting

The manufacturer lists pregnancy as a contraindication. If you have a pacemaker, an implanted electronic device, a prosthesis or a metal implant, tell the provider before considering a session. Compatibility depends on the device and its location.

Recent surgery, unexplained pain or other health conditions also need reviewing. This guidance does not replace the full contraindication list for the specific equipment or a medical assessment when required.

Taking the first step

Tell us what you would like to improve and which parts of your medical history may be relevant. If you want to understand how a visit works, read what to expect at your first session at Pelvi CR.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to have symptoms?

You can ask about training without having symptoms. Suitability for PelviX still needs checking before you begin.

Is PelviX suitable for every pelvic floor?

That should not be assumed. Pain or excessive pelvic floor tension requires a specific assessment.
