1. INTRODUCTION
Device Description & Principles of
Design
Bladder leakage and incontinence are
common problems for both women and
men, affecting their long-term health.
Exercising the pelvic floor muscles is
recognised as the way of preventing
and treating symptoms of incontinence
and pelvic floor weakness.
The Elise 2 is a powered muscle
stimulator used for strengthening the
pelvic floor muscles.
It sends a gentle stimulation (similar to
your natural nerve impulses) direct to
your pelvic floor muscles through a
vaginal probe with stainless steel
electrodes. These signals make your
pelvic floor muscles contract. If you
have forgotten how to contract them,
are having trouble getting muscle
response, or simply want to bring back
the condition of your pelvic floor
muscles, the Elise 2 can work them for
you to build up their strength and help
you to develop your own muscle
control. It perfectly complements pelvic
floor exercises. The Elise 2 is very easy
to use, with four clearly labelled pre-set
training programmes and a simple push
button control.
The Elise 2 provides relief from
conditions such as:
• Urinary and faecal incontinence:
including stress, urge and mixed
types as well as post prostatectomy
urinary
incontinence
Additionally, it may help improve
sexual intimacy by toning the pelvic
floor muscles.
• Anal stimulation may also help men
who are otherwise unable to execute
Kegel exercises to strengthen their
pelvic floor. Pelvic floor muscle
