Elitone® is the external pelvic floor exerciser that tones your pelvic floor (does Kegels) for you. Do you leak urine when you laugh, sneeze, or exercise?

You will worry less knowing that Elitone’s gentle contractions are done for you, longer and stronger than you can on your own. And all for less than you spend on absorbent pads each year.

FAQs
Q. Do I need a prescription?
A. Elitone is FDA-cleared for use without a prescription.
Q. How do I use Elitone?
A. Elitone is used at your convenience in the privacy of your home. A GelPad is placed on your perineal (pubic) area and then connected to a tiny controller. After putting on your clothes, clip the controller to your waistband, and press a button to start a treatment. During treatment, you can walk around and continue your daily routine. After 20 minutes of treatment, the controller turns off automatically.
Q. Are there any side effects?
A. Elitone is regulatory-cleared as a treatment for stress urinary incontinence in women. This means that it was found to be both safe and effective. The most common side effects are skin irritation and muscle fatigue, and these most often occur when the device is used more than the recommended amount. Both are typically addressed by taking a few days off from treatment. When you receive your Elitone it is important to thoroughly read the User Manual. It explains proper operation and how to avoid misuse.
Q. How does it work?
Elitone works by sending signals (neurostimulation) that tell your pelvic muscles to contract and relax. As they contract they get toned, which is needed to keep the valve closed as you move around.
Q. What type of incontinence is Elitone for?
A. Elitone is designed to tone the pelvic floor muscles underneath the bladder. It is indicated for stress incontinence (bladder leaks with physical movement.) Many women have both stress incontinence and overactive bladder (urgency, urge incontinence), and Elitone does send out signals known to treat both types (but more for stress incontinence). When you have urgency or an overactive bladder, a stronger pelvic floor can also help you get to the toilet without an accident.
Q. How well does it work?
A. In our clinical studies 95% of women reduced their leaks after 6 weeks of use. Average reduction was 71% at that point (many may need to use it longer). Pad reduction was 85%. This is similar to all the invasive (vaginally inserted) treatment alternatives.
Q. What does the therapy feel like?
A. Women report a tingling sensation where the GelPad contacts the skin. A few minutes into the treatment, your skin may feel a little numb. Elitone is specially developed with PMW technology to send signals safely and comfortably through the skin to reach the muscles and treat urinary incontinence [unlike low-frequency devices like TENS for pain management].
Q. What are GelPads About?
A. 10 GelPads are included in a typical kit. GelPads are used to transmit the stimulation to correct body placement. Each GelPad can be reused until it loses its stickiness. We count a minimum of 3, but most women use it 6-9 times each. Additional packs of 5 GelPads are $28 each. Rest assured, as an FDA-cleared device, it has passed all biocompatibility tests. The gels in the GelPads are non-toxic hydrogels, which means it is mostly salt-water. The gel is slightly sticky and originates from the wound-care industry, which means that it does NOT pull hair and is very gentle.
Q. Do I need to shave?
A. Most women do not need to shave or wax, but trimming hair is often helpful. The gel used in the GelPads can be applied over hair and will not pull hair when removed. However, there does need to be good skin contact. Some women in our clinical study said they shaved or trimmed hair for best results.
Q. Can I use it if/for...
A. No: have electronic implants, males, hypertonic pelvic muscles, pregnant
Yes: metal implants, prolapse, fecal incontinence, heavyweight, better sex, postpartum and more
