Short answer

An electromagnetic pelvic floor trainer such as the PelviPower™ is a training chair: the client sits fully clothed, a magnetic field in the seat stimulates the pelvic floor muscles, and a session lasts around 20 minutes. Three things are decisive when introducing it into a practice: clarifying the device’s intended purpose, checking exclusion criteria before every first appointment and defining professional responsibilities within the team. Promises of healing have no place in the communication.

Position your facility as a longevity destination.

In a 30-minute session, we'll assess which longevity and biohacking technologies fit your space, your clientele, and your business model — and which don't.

How electromagnetic pelvic floor training works

A pelvic floor trainer in a practice is quickly set up. What matters is device selection, workflow and clear responsibilities, this guide shows what counts with an electromagnetic pelvic floor training device.

In electromagnetic pelvic floor training, the client sits on a training chair. A magnetic field generated in the seat stimulates the pelvic floor muscles to contract, fully clothed, without electrodes and without active effort from the client.

HF Concepts carries the PelviPower™ for this purpose. A session lasts around 20 minutes; training takes place in everyday clothing in a relaxed seated position. HF Concepts declares the offering as a non-medical concept for wellness and training purposes.

Pelvic floor trainers for practices: what to look for

Electromagnetic pelvic floor chairs differ less in their basic principle than in intended purpose, programme logic and service. Clarify before buying:

QuestionWhy it matters
Intended purposeIs the device placed on the market as a wellness/training device or as a medical device? This determines how you may promote it and who may operate it.
Exclusion criteriaIs there a complete list of exclusion criteria, and a questionnaire your team can use?
Programmes and intensityCan intensity be adjusted step by step and documented per client?
TrainingWho trains your team, and is the briefing documented?
Space and settingA quiet room with seating area and a place for personal items is usually enough, we clarify the exact requirements for your room before delivery.

Introducing it into operations: how an appointment runs

A structured workflow protects clients and staff, and makes appointments predictable. The following order has proven itself:

  1. Intro talk: clarify goals and expectations, without promises of healing.
  2. Exclusion check: have the questionnaire completed; obtain medical clearance if anything is unclear.
  3. Preparation: have items with metal or magnetic strips removed before the session.
  4. Session: set intensity together and adjust as needed.
  5. Follow-up: record feedback, plan further sessions, document settings.

Exclusion criteria: when training is not an option

The following exclusion criteria belong in every intake questionnaire and are checked before the first appointment. If in doubt, medical clearance decides, not the on-site team.

  • Pregnancy
  • Epilepsy
  • Cancer
  • Surgery in the pelvic area less than four weeks ago
  • Decompensated heart disease and malignant cardiac arrhythmias
  • Metal implants in the pelvic area (e.g. hip or knee prostheses, screws, clips)
  • Metal-containing tattoos or piercings in the pelvic area
  • Implanted electronic devices (e.g. pacemaker, defibrillator, insulin pump, neurostimulator)

There are also relative exclusion criteria (e.g. IUD, menstruation, acute infections) that require caution or medical clearance.

Professional responsibility: who does what?

In a medical or physiotherapy practice, training can be part of a professionally supervised offering. In a studio, hotel or spa it is a training and wellbeing offering. Either way, a clear division of tasks applies:

  • On-site team: briefing, exclusion questionnaire, operation, documentation
  • Physician: assessment in case of complaints, pre-existing conditions or unclear exclusion criteria
  • Operator: training records, compliance with intended purpose, legally sound communication

Addressing clients with specific complaints such as incontinence quickly moves into health-related advertising. Frame offerings as training, and refer clients with complaints to qualified professionals.

Frequently asked questions

How does an electromagnetic pelvic floor trainer work?

The client sits fully clothed on a training chair. A magnetic field in the seat stimulates the pelvic floor muscles to contract, without electrodes and without active effort.

How long does a PelviPower session last?

Around 20 minutes, depending on the programme.

Who should not use pelvic floor training?

Among others: pregnant women and people with epilepsy, cancer, recent surgery, certain heart conditions, metal implants in the pelvic area or implanted electronic devices. If in doubt, the application should be cleared with a physician first.

Does a physician need to be present?

That depends on the device’s intended purpose and your offering. In case of complaints, pre-existing conditions or unclear exclusion criteria, a medical assessment should take place beforehand.

Can I promote the training with health benefits?

No. For an offering declared as wellness or training, promises of healing are not permitted. Communicate it as training and refer clients with complaints to professionals.
