Physiotherapy exercises for the pelvic floor
The importance of caring for and strengthening the pelvic floor with physical therapy
Strengthening and rehabilitation of the pelvic floor with specialist physiotherapy sessions and muscle training on our exclusively designed machine.
The importance of looking after your pelvic floor
At present, 50% of all women aged between 20 and 50 have experienced urinary incontinence when making a physical effort such as jumping, sneezing or laughing. In most cases, this urinary incontinence is due to a weakening of the pelvic floor muscles. In women, pregnancy and childbirth are the main causes of this weakening of the pelvic floor. In men, these problems often appear with age, especially after 50.
Other risk factors for the appearance of urinary incontinence are: frequently remaining seated for hours, a minimum level of physical activity, or prostate, bladder or intestine operations.
Training the pelvic floor is a very effective way of solving or minimising this type of urinary incontinence, as well as being very important in other aspects of everyday life. If you are looking for effective pelvic floor exercises, Wunder Training offers a unique method for strengthening and recovering the area with measurable results right from day one.

A5. Our exclusive machine to strengthen the pelvic floor
Wunder Training has a machine capable of independently training and strengthening the pelvic floor muscles. This machine works the muscle group in question and avoids confusion with other auxiliary muscles (gluteus, abdominal, adductor).
The central part of the pelvic floor machine is a pressure sensor fitted horizontally on the surface of the seat, which detects muscle contraction intensity. Thanks to the monitor connected to the machine, it is possible to control the intensity of the exercise and measure the results obtained.
This is a discreet, non-invasive method to strengthen the pelvic floor that is designed for individual use.
The exclusive, patented technology of the pelvic floor machine provides:
- Training focused on the pelvic floor.
- An indication to users whether tension and relaxation are being applied in the correct place and to what degree.
- A measurement of the training progress shown in graph form.
