Kegel exercises are the go-to recommendation for pelvic floor strength. They're free, discreet, and easy to do anywhere — in theory. In practice, it is easy to contract the wrong muscles when attempting them unsupervised. Even those who get the technique right often see only modest improvements when the pelvic floor is moderately to severely weakened.

The Dr. Arnold Magnetic Chair is a non-invasive medical device that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) technology to trigger supramaximal pelvic floor contractions. In a single 28-minute session — seated fully clothed on the Dr. Arnold Magnetic Chair — your pelvic floor muscles contract repeatedly throughout the session. A mild tingling sensation is typical. The chair is used alongside pelvic floor training rather than instead of it, and whether it suits your situation depends on what is causing the symptoms.

So which is right for you? The honest answer depends on the severity of your symptoms. For mild weakness or as a daily preventive habit, Kegels remain worthwhile. But for women dealing with stress urinary incontinence, postpartum pelvic floor laxity, or who have persevered with Kegels and seen little change, the Dr. Arnold Magnetic Chair offers a well established, specialist-supervised path to faster and more reliable results. At The Fit Clinic, our specialists carry out a thorough pelvic floor assessment before recommending any treatment, ensuring your programme is designed around your individual anatomy and goals.
