All women young and old need to be aware of and exercise their pelvic floor muscles throughout their life.
Your pelvic floor muscle is actually a series of strong, flexible muscles that act as a hammock for the bladder, womb and bowel.
With age, excess weight, pregnancy, the menopause, bad habits or even good habits including lots of high impact sports your Pelvic Floor may become stretched and weak.
This will mean that your internal organs are not supported and you will experience embarrassing issues with lack of control of your bladder or bowel.
You might find that you start waking up in the night or that you have to rush home when shopping or doing the school run. You may not be able to control wind or you might find that if you laugh or cough or do vigorous exercise that a tiny bit of moisture leaks out. You may find your sex life is less satisfying for both you and your partner or that you are unable to reach orgasm.
These are the early signs to warn you that you need to take action. Don't be embarrassed by these issues, take positive action and regain control of your life.
The
Athena Pelvic Floor Muscle Exerciser™ is easy and comfortable to use by inserting into the vagina, as you would a tampon, with the assistance of the
Athena Hydrogel lubricant.
It performs perfect pelvic exercises every time using a gentle electrical pulse that stimulates the muscle to contract with absolutely no effort from you.
It is the most advanced pelvic floor exerciser available to women. Unlike other devices, the Athena has no bulky wires, so you don't have to stay "plugged in". Using the cordless Athena for just 15 minutes twice a day will maintain or give you back control.
Each 15 minute session gives you 180 contractions and you can just lie back and relax, watch your favourite soap opera or even read a magazine.
You should notice a difference with your pelvic control in a matter of weeks.
The Athena Pelvic Floor Muscle Exerciser™ is best suited for women who suffer from symptoms of pelvic floor muscle weakness, such as stress and urge incontinence, the early stages of pelvic prolapse, weak muscles after childbirth and decreased sexual satisifaction.

Zero Rated VAT Information - VAT Zero Rating: Group 12, Schedule 8 of VAT Act 1994
Some UK customers will qualify for zero rated VAT upon purchase of an Athena Pelvic Floor Muscle Exerciser, but to comply with UK Customs and Excise legislation, your claim must be genuine.
The product must be bought by an individual entirely for disabled self use and not for resale or use in an institution, otherwise VAT will still be liable. Whilst there is reference to 'disabled', it is not necessary to be registered as disabled or to have a doctor's note. Women who suffer disablement from incontinence & bladder weakness qualify for the zero rate VAT. Furthermore, where disabling chronic pelvic pain can be managed by this device, a zero rate VAT can also be claimed. If you have a doctor's certificate already, or could easily get a doctor's certificate to confirm your condition, you will have no problems making this zero rate VAT claim.
After the online purchasing process is completed (whereupon you will have been asked to pay the full price including VAT - £199.12), and your order is shipped to you, you will be required to complete the enclosed Zero Rate VAT Declaration form and provide us with formal statutory declaration of your eligibility, such as a copy of a doctor’s certificate. Upon receipt of your declaration form, we will complete a verification process to access if your claim is genuine and refund the VAT portion of the purchase price (£29.66) to the original credit/debit card used. If your claim is not genuine, you will not be refunded the VAT you have already paid. You may only purchase and claim one zero rate VAT machine.
PLEASE NOTE: In the interests of hygiene we are unable to offer a refund or exchange on pelvic floor exercisers once the packaging seal has been opened. Items of this nature must be unused and returned in the original, sealed packaging to qualify for a refund should you change your mind about your purchase.
