There is no virtual replacement for feeling your muscles and diagnosing your issues hands-on.

Every woman could benefit from an individualized assessment by a pelvic floor physical therapist.

But PT isn’t possible for many women—logistically, financially and even emotionally.

A study showed that less than half of women referred to pelvic PT actually started therapy, and only 15 percent completed treatment.

That's why we partnered with pelvic floor PTs to increase access to information and exercises for pelvic floor dysfunction.

Vagercise is an ideal complement to in-person therapy, empowering women to learn more about the pelvic floor and reclaim their health on their own terms.

Pelvic floor PTs are experts in diagnosing your issues and providing manual therapies that help improve pelvic floor function.

Therapies like trigger point release are especially valuable if you have pelvic pain or tension.

But the hands-on (or should we say hands-in) work is only one aspect of PT.

A pelvic PT spends much of a typical appointment reviewing educational information and explaining your at-home exercises.

When it comes to actually doing the exercise, you're usually on your own—with notes or handouts that only provide so much guidance.

You might be confused. You'll probably get bored. And unfortunately, you might give up.

Vagercise classes empower you to exercise consistently and correctly, with PTs guiding you through every move.

For women who can't see a PT, Vagercise is an excellent source of expert information and exercises.

For other women, Vagercise is a PT complement that helps save time and money on office visits.

By learning and exercising at home, you can make the most of your visits by focusing on treatment that can only be completed in person.

You'll pay about the same price for the 12-hour Vagercise video library as you would on a single appointment with a pelvic floor PT.

Most pelvic PTs charge $200 to $300 for the initial evaluation and $150 to $200 for follow-up appointments.

If you see a PT for 6 to 8 visits, as is typical, you can expect to spend between $1,000 to $2,000 out of pocket on pelvic floor physical therapy.

Why is pelvic PT so expensive?

In the United States, there's far more demand for pelvic floor PT than there are providers who can offer it.

As many as 40 million women have pelvic floor dysfunction, but there are only about 4,000 pelvic floor PTs nationwide.

As a result, most pelvic PTs operate cash-pay practices that don't accept insurance.

And even if you can use insurance, many PTs are overbooked, with wait lists that span months.

Vagercise is designed to be an affordable complement or alternative to physical therapy.

You'll get the same exercises and information that pelvic PTs share with their patients—but less than 70% of the cost of a typical PT regimen.

Vagercise offers exercises and information for pelvic floor symptoms including but not limited to:

• Bladder leaks from sneezing, coughing, laughing, jumping, running and exercising
• Feeling a frequent and/or urgent, uncontrollable need to pee
• Leaks of poop or gas
• Difficulty peeing or pooping, including constipation
• Feeling heaviness or bulging in the vagina, which may be pelvic organ prolapse
• Diastasis recti, a separation of the abdominal muscles resulting in abs that are squishy or bulging
• Weakness in the core, glutes, hips and low back
• Pain with sex, pelvic exams or tampon use
• Lack of sexual sensation or difficulty reaching orgasm
• Pain or tension in the low back, hips and tailbone

It's never too late to Vagercise, even if your baby isn't a baby anymore.

Pelvic floor issues typically don't get better with time. In fact, they get worse during perimenopause and menopause.

Hormonal changes that occur as early as your 30s can contribute to symptoms like bladder leaks and pain with sex.

With your doctor's permission, you can take Vagercise classes at any time in your postpartum journey—whether you had a baby six weeks, six months or 16 years ago.

We know you're busy, so we designed the Vagercise library of on-demand classes to give you the flexibility you need.

With our guidance, you can choose the classes that are best for you.

Most educational classes are around 5 minutes. Most exercise classes take less than 15 minutes to complete, with the exception of yoga classes that last up to 30 minutes.

In general, we recommend taking exercise classes for at least 60-90 minutes per week for at least 6 weeks.

See our class overview for more details and sample schedules for specific pelvic floor issues.

We're confident that Vagercise will help you improve your pelvic floor issues.

If it doesn't, we'll issue a full refund to help you on your journey to pelvic health.

But you have to help yourself first.

It can take weeks to change your muscle tissue, whether you're building pelvic floor strength, relaxing tight muscles or pursuing any fitness goal. (Would you really see results from only a couple of personal training sessions?)

Resolving your symptoms requires consistent effort, whether you're taking the Vagercise course, going to physical therapy or using a product.

You're eligible for a refund if you meet these criteria:

• You purchased the course at least six weeks ago.
• You have completed at least six exercise classes in categories such as Pelvic Floor Strength, Core Strength or Yoga and Relaxation.
• You have completed all of our Must-Watch educational classes: Pelvic Floor 101, Pelvic Floor Assessment, Core Essentials, Breathing Essentials and Posture Essentials.
• You contact our team to discuss why Vagercise might not be working for you.
