Gentle Stretching reduces risk of tearing by 42%

Why EPI-NO makes sense?

Exercises to Stretch the Perineum from week 37

EPI-NO exercises enhance the function of the natural pregnancy hormone ‘Relaxin’ to prepare the perineum with gentle stretching exercises.

EPI-NO stretching exercises should commence at 37 weeks and continue until the end of the pregnancy term. These exercises gradually stretch the perineum in daily sessions of 20 minutes in total, comprising of 4 cycles of 5 minutes.

Insert the EPI-NO balloon half way into the vagina.
Gently contract and relax your muscles against the balloon, which provides resistance.
Slowly inflate the EPI-NO balloon to the point of stretching and comfort.
Each day you will inflate and stretch more.
After the stretching phase relax your pelvic floor muscles and allow the inflated EPI-NO balloon to gently expel itself from the vagina.
This will familiarise you with the sensation of delivering the baby’s head.

Exercises to Strengthen the Pelvic Floor Muscles

EPI-NO also strengthens the pelvic floor muscles and helps you to perform kegel exercisies correctly. It can be used from early on in the pregnancy and following the birth to restore pelvic floor muscle strength, promote bladder control and sexual health.

A strong pelvic floor supports the weight of childbearing, and is more resilient in its recovery after the birth. In these exercises the balloon acts as a sensor and is only minimally inflated. The pressure gauge monitors your performance during kegel training and informs you that you are exercising the right muscles. The stronger your pelvic floor muscles the higher the pressure you can exert on the balloon. This is called Bio-feedback and helps motivate you to see your performance improve. . These exercises continue after the birth of the baby.
