Purely one for the pregnant ladies or brand new mums that want to strengthen the all important pelvic floor after carrying that huge heavy baby. Someone has gamified kegels by creating a video game around them. Consider it “Kegels for Millenials”.
This device and video game is supposed to be amazing for strengthening your core and pelvic floor.

No. Read my description. It’s a core/pelvic floor trainer. Physio therapy stuff for women. Would be great if Ozbargain could be an inclusive place for men AND women.
Dont mean to offend, as a dude I honestly have no idea what this is. It looks phallic so my simple smooth brain goes straight to… lady toys
Agreed it could look that way but the description indicates more than that. Pregnant women carry heavy babies that affect their health in many ways. Losing the strength of your pelvic floor is only one of the ways women suffer to bring kids into this world.
@Lady Grey: Well.. Today I learn. Gotta admit though.. 100 day trial for this kind of product is somewhat amusing
@Lady Grey: But like, it says:
Perifit usage is not advised during pregnancy, as it has not been tested on pregnant women for ethical reasons. If you are currently pregnant, we recommend you perform manual Kegels, and resume Perifit 6 weeks after delivery.
Right?! I mean, all it takes is reading the first line of my post to understand if this applies to you or not. I wasn’t hiding what it was. If you need an education on women’s health click on the link to learn more about the product and features and benefits, or Google it. Or politely ask. Don’t be a jerk about it and sexualise everything.
@obi1: Dude, stop trying to be smartarse and just use your brain and try understand the point @Lady Grey is making.
Don’t be a jerk about it and sexualise everything.
Seems reasonable to me.
@obi1: What is wanted is someone to write a script to find deals that relate to both/all genders, specifically women. Obviously cannot rely on contributors using this site to find deals that do not interest them in the slightest.
Btw, I think the deal is good, but agree that comment made was ridiculous.
Nah. Ignore the negs. People will learn from these comments. As bucketthat has shown.
But as always there are people who will troll (e.g. @HolyCr4p) and be rude.
You're either blind or haven't been here very long. There are lot of sexist comments about women on here, just read this comment section for f sake. I honestly feel sorry for females having to read some of this. Should just be about the bargains not dudebro crap.
@Ryballs: I guess you don't understand the meaning of inclusivity, this website has bargains for all genders and persuasions…if you haven't noticed that is down to your own ignorance.
In general this site is pretty good, of course there are going to be some idiots and toxic comments but that is the nature of the internet…..or is the internet not inclusive also?
Actually it could potentially be used by a male to strengthen pelvic floor too. It could be a bit large, but that is how a guy with chronically weak pelvic floor would strengthen it. So this too is physiotherapy stuff for male as well. Not just women
how about who?
@EyyBanane: I know you are just trolling, but 'beyond the binary' is gender, not sex. This is an exercise/medical device that depends on your physical make up, which is not about gender.
@dtc: Yeah well, the comment about “making Ozbargain an inclusive place for men AND women” was not just in reference to this deal, but in general to any deals that gets posted here and the differential treatment. So it’s not just about sex.
Even if it is (as you mentioned - physical make up), then consider intersex and DSD. Make it inclusive for all.
Who said they weren't?
Just seems that $150 for a "device" with article links to Vice/Mashable hardly constitutes a qualified medical device.
Your money though…
Because pelvic floor dysfunction is rife in women, particularly those who have been pregnant and given birth.
Because pregnant women carrying heavy babies lose the strength of their pelvic floor causing them to need physio therapy training so they don’t accidentally wet themselves after they have had the baby. Just recognise someone might need this.
Because for women who are afflicted it can be devastating. Imagine sneezing and wetting yourself.
Surgery outcomes are mixed and the previously recommended pelvic mesh treatment has ruined many lives.
Considering the challenges some have in correctly performing Kegels exercises and the cost of medical care if this works for 1 in 10 then it is worth every cent.
Will this make me perifit ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Haha oh no
Ozbargained
I wish I could find an exercise game on console with dedicated controller that allows me to gamify my workout, sigh such a niche market I guess no company would make something so stupid because it will never sell…..

Also this second hand / cheap: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wii_Fit
$151. LOL.
Can a man use this as well?
Can use it for trigger point therapy
Yeah try it lol
Men technically have pelvic floors as well, but I'm not sure where you'd insert this for the intended benefits ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Your thoughts are correct according to Dr Google. However as usual with the current time, men seem to be left out with pelvic floor treatment devices too.
Usually products are invented or created because a widespread or commonly known problem is identified and there is a market failure or gap to solve that problem yet it could be lucrative for an individual or company. I am unsure of how large or widespread the issue of male pelvic floor weakness is, but I do know the issue of female incontinence because of weak pelvic floors as a result of pregnancy is extremely common and almost expected by every woman who falls pregnant. Market size is therefore huge therefore profit potential is also huge. Perhaps this is why this particular product exists and a solution for men either doesn’t exist yet or has not been put out to market or advertised well because it could be a “hidden problem” in that it is swept under the rug or not as prevalent in our society.
@Lady Grey: These products do exist for men (anybody who had taken 30 seconds to put into a search engine 'pelvic floor device men' would get hits such as this: https://elletens.com.au/products/sensatone-for-men), I'm concerned this is one of those 'whataboutery' devices employed to derail what is a critical health issue, and belittle a legitimate discount on a pricey product. Good find.
I suspect there are more than a few physiotherapists who would be very tempted to assist insensitive males in using this device even at the risk of professional misconduct.
There's actually not enough physiotherapists treating male incontinence due to the invasive nature of the treatment. Big problem in the industry actually. And yes, poor general public awareness of the issue.
Playing flappy bird with your vaginal walls. I'm into it.
is there a male version of perifit?
No but you can make one
Meh, someone will get offended.
I don’t think so. Why don’t you make one?
Build it and they will cum ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Legit thought they were called pelvic floor exercises because you did them on the floor. Wasn't until our second child that me and the misses had 'the talk'.
Is the controller switch compatible?
And it's a pelvic thruuust. It really drives you in-say-yay-yay-yay-yay-yaaaaane.
Digital interface for your lady bits
All the creeps who come in to these type of deals to flex their ignorance and predictable humour. Gets old
Perifit uses proprietary algorithms to assess your personal pelvic floor performance against five key metrics: strength, endurance, frequency, release and accuracy.
Strength… copy
Endurance… copy
Frequency… copy
Release and accuracy… does this require the optional dartboard?
That's actually a really good idea- gamifying anything can completely change how people approach/keep with things. Great to see that it's crossed over to women's health. I appreciate the post OP, same as all the other bargains here, it will be useful for some people, and those it isn't useful for can scroll through other deals
It's a heck of a lot cheaper than paying an obstetrician to access and sit on a wave chair that's for sure.
No, I’m a woman that recently had a baby but am under lockdown so I can’t see a physiotherapist or obstetrician about my pelvic floor and thought this might help me and I posted it on here because I thought it could help others.
Medical appointments count as care I thought? I'm definitely still seeing my physio in lockdown! (17 weeks post emergency c section)
Yep, technically can still see them but I’m in LGA of concern in Sydney so anxiety about contracting is high. I’m iffy about being in a room one on one with anyone not in my immediate family. Trying to self isolate until everyone in my household is fully vaccinated.
Clicked into what I thought was going to be an innocent deal with harmless jokes.. got reminded about the society we live in.
Pretty disgusting, isn’t it?
Edit: to be clear, some of the comments here, not the product.
Yup, it's terrible reading some of the comments on here isn't it. You can see why people are turned away from the place. Good on you @Lady Grey for not shying away from this.
I wonder if you can play doodle jump with it too 🤣
Keep up the good work Lady Grey - Spectra deal was much needed at the time!
As a similar topic for those new parents out there, designer bums reusable nappies are 30% off ATM with coupon expo (shows on banner at top of site)
Im on phone and can't be bothered making the post.
Thought about it. But over $150!?! I’m too tight for that
I see what you did there. And, even as the OP, I respect it.
PS I did actually order one thanks OP :)
Ha ha. Amazing. Glad to be of service.
Are you sure about that big jezza?
Pmsl
Glad I could change the mood and help everyone loosen up a bit
Referral links are now working. 20% off using that too and you help a fellow ozbargainer!
How'd you get yours? I purchased and don't see any messages anywhere…
It was a popup that appears on the order complete screen. I can't figure out how to get it back sorry.
No worries, thanks!
