Discover The Truth & Deception - KegelMaster 2000 Review

Choosing a kegel exercise device can be an overwhelming experience considering the number of popular products on the market, especially the over hyped marketing of the Kegel Master 2000. The following independent review reveals exactly how to choose the best device for your needs.

  • Pelvexiser (2009 Recommended #1 for the 3rd year)
  • Kegelmaster
  • Kegelcisor
  • Energie
  • Kegelpro
  • Myself
  • Kegel Exercise Weights


Pelvexiser:
Ranked #1 For All Round Effectiveness, Easy Of Use and Value!
average user rating: 5 stars 5-Stars

Has received more great reviews and recommendations from women and medical professionals  than any other device, I recommend that you check it out. Great for sexual fitness, incontience and pre and post pregnancy health.

The bio-feedback means you do perfect kegels everytime - if you are suffering from incontinence then it is recommended to add "Kegel Weights". This will give the most complete kegel muscle workout - lengthen, shorten and constant muscle contractions!

KegelMaster 2000 & Device Review

The following review of this industry will help you understand that kegels do work, are medically validated - it is just a matter of doing them properly and consistently!

Unfortunately, many of the kegal (kegel) exercisers actually can do more harm than good.

Why? Cheap manufacturing in China can result in questionable device material and gimmick tension springs that can serverly pinch your labia.

Furthermore, Dr. Kegel never intended that exercises to be a contest of strength ... he actuallywarns against over contraction

... the need to contract and relax is key! Including isometric contractions (i.e. contracting and holding the kegel muscle for a period of time upto 3 mins). This is why kegel weights are an excellent addition to your kegel exercise regime.

Unfortunately, kegelmaster promotes its product based on 13 levels of tension - which makes no medical sense!

Despite swirling controversy we feel that The orginal FeminX "Kegel Exerciser" manufactured by A Personal Solution, Inc, set the standard for todays best devices. However, in 2006 the product was discontinued.

With the leading product removed fromt he market the KegalMaster product leaped to the front of the industry despite ontinual negative publicty.

However, today a new advanced product, the Pelvexiser has overtake the false market leader.

For the excessive price tag and its troubled history I feel that Kegelmaster is more of a novelty product than medical device.

The best all round product in this 2009 review remains:

the Pelvexiser Rated: A+ rated by PWSH as the best all round device. The most import distinction is that both devices appear as medical recommended kegel exercise device (i.e. can be covered with a health insurance policy).

FeminX vs KegelMaster 2006 - Media Deceit & Controversy

The only weakness in our review of A Personal Solution, Inc is their aggressive promotion of the The television series American Medical Review commercial.

In this promotion they profiled the FeminX "Kegel Exerciser" for national TV broadcast under the guise of a medical review.

A Personal Solution, Inc strongly emphasize that the show is hosted by Morley Safer (of the 60 minutes fame) and attempts to give the viewer the impression that the device is being independently reviewed.

"Tisk, tisk, tisk..... shame on you A Personal Solution, Inc
- you have such a great product why would you do such a thing?"

Anyway, it is important to stress the American Medical Review is NOT an objective report.

So view it as a educational commercial!

In my research of American Medical Review which is produced by the production company WJMK, it appears these shows are a paid promotions by medical and pharmaceutical companies.

Apparently companies pay up to $15,000 for a 2-5 min plug on the product. And the company is given editorial control.

For what it is worth you can view the truth about the Kegel device industry on the A Personal Solution, Inc website. It still very informative and educational. (this video and website has been shut down and is not available updated Feb 2007))

Despite this questionable marketing strategy from both companies, here are the 5 key factors that made the FeminX kegel device and KegelMaster 2000 products stand out:

  • variable resistance kegal device

  • received marketing clearance as medical device

  • Clinical studies to prove effectiveness & Safety

  • 100% FDA Approved Materials:

  • Over-insertion protection

  • Good value: Range $59 - $99

Currently there is only one other comparable kegel devices on the market today like the Kegelmaster 2000 and FeminX: the Pelvexiser.

The Kegal Master has gained popularity in the public, but has been severly criticized by leading sex health experts Dr. Laura Berman, co-director and sex therapists for the Women's Sexual Health Clinic at Boston University Medical Center, who believes the Kegelmaster 2000 could actually injure the PC muscles.

Note that Kegelmaster found H. David Wallick boosts that the Kegelmaster 2000 has 14 levels of resistance.

However, some medical practitioners claim there is no need for 14 levels of resistance.

In fact it is dangerous!

Dr. Laura Berman is quoted in Glamour Magazine on this comment on the Kegelmaster2000:

"Overstitching those muscles may result in damaging their ability to contract and could also result in loss of sensation, as well as tearing and scarring..."

And so with that statement which probable, was taken out of context has created and rivalry between Kegelmaster 2000 and FeminX.

To counter these claims, Kegelmaster is so confident in their product that they offered a triple back money guarantee at one time.

Here are product specifics on KegelMaster 2000.

 

Why FDA Approval is Important

The FeminX Kegel Exerciser™ received the first marketing clearance by the FDA as a 510(K) Medical Device.

This is an important distinction as a kegel device.

The FDA requires the first applicant ("FeminX Kegel Exerciser™") to prove:

  • Safety

  • Quality

  • Effectiveness

Subsequent applicants do not have to prove this.

They only have to show a likeness between their product and first FDA cleared product.

The Kegelmaster has been on the market more than four years before they redesigned their product with many of the same safety features as the "FeminX Kegel Exerciser™" and only recently received FDA clearance.

However, in November 2004 the FDA issued a Kegel Device manufacturing and marketing warning letter to Kegelmaster 2000 founder David Warick On numerous violations.

The most important violation by Kegelmaster 2000 is that it claimed to have "FDA safety approval" which it DOES NOT! Kegelmaster has proven to be an opportunistic marketing company - recently in 2009 it attempts to claim celebrity endosement from

Combine this false claim of safety with the comments of Dr. Berman you have what some may call a dangerous product.

But I do not fully agree with this conclusion - they both seem to be very guilty of similar dubious marketing. Regardless this old debate is mute!

Today in 2009 there is a new market leader providing percision effective kegels with bio-feedback -- Pelvexiser! Just consider most bio-feedback medical devices on the market today are priced over $100 the Pelvexiser is a an expectional value!

Manufactured by medical experts, remember for extra effectiveness adding kegel weights to ehance all muscle contraction types is the most effective way to stregthen and eliminate incontinence for weakenned pelvic muscles

Happy Kegels! They Work!
