About Us
From bladder control to better sex to healthy aging, the pelvic floor muscles have a huge impact on quality of life for women and men. But because those subjects can be taboo, they don’t get the attention they should.
Our mission is to change that. Exercising the pelvic floor muscles can have tremendous benefits across multiple facets of your life. We are working to build great products and greater awareness of all things Kegel so that all people can take care of their bodies, and realize that pelvic health issues are not inevitable, but rather preventable.
Our Story
Phase 1:
dr. Urszula Herman conducted research on female incontinence and the reasons for delays in seeking treatment. She published an article highlighting that it takes over 7 years from the onset of symptoms for individuals to seek help from a doctor. The delay was attributed to shame, lack of knowledge, and the expectation that the problem would resolve on its own.
Phase 2:
The collaboration with engineers from the USA, specifically Stanford University, led to scientific research on the potential use of the kGoal vaginal probe in medical rehabilitation. This research formed the basis for Urszula's doctoral thesis within the program at Jagiellonian University Collegium Medicum. The results demonstrated that the device, along with its accompanying application, supported compliance and maintained user engagement, resulting in positive outcomes.
Phase 3:
PelviFly was founded as a result of the successful research outcomes. Drawing data from various sources, we established a non-medical training system with remote supervision by physiotherapists. This phase also involved securing investments from notable partners.
Phase 4:
The development of a medical-grade system led to the establishment of PelviCoach GmbH in Mannheim, Germany, in collaboration with gynecologists and urologists from the medical university. Our focus now is on obtaining medical certification and implementing a reimbursement system.
