Kegel balls, or Ben Wa balls, have been used for centuries to strengthen vaginal and pelvic floor muscles. Our weighted balls can be combined into nine different ways to help you contract and release muscles with ease. Kegal balls do more than just whip your pelvic floor into shape. To get your Benwa balls ready for use, you should: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap - Wash your Kegel balls with warm water and soap, and then dry them off with a clean towel - If needed rub a water-based lube on the balls so they’re easier to insert. After applying lube, you should: - Lie down in a comfortable position (spread eagle is often best) - Slowly and steadily insert the first ball - Our Kegel balls are connected to each other by a silicon strap, so slip that inside your vagina followed by the second ball (we have single and double straps) Push the weighted exercise balls into your vagina as far as you’re comfortable with. The silicon removal string should hang outside of your vagina, so make sure it’s not accidentally tucked in with the rest of the balls Tighten your pelvic floor muscles to hold your Kegel balls inside of you and go about your day. The balls should feel secure inside your vaginal canal. If you feel like they’re about to fall out - or the first ball is visible outside of your vaginal opening - gently push them deeper into your vagina. How you feel with the balls inside varies from person to person, but it’s generally a subtle, tingly sensation. This feeling usually intensifies with movement, like walking, bending down, or reaching up. If you want to strengthen your pelvic floor, targeted exercises will help you identify and tone your muscles.
