What Is a Kegel Training Set and How Can the Elektra Help?

The kegel training set has come a long way from simple squeeze-and-hold exercises. The Honey Play Box Elektra takes pelvic floor training into genuinely new territory by combining electrical muscle stimulation (e-stim) with app-controlled guidance — all in one discreet, rechargeable device. Priced at £64.99, it sits within the broader category of women's health devices designed to support pelvic floor rehabilitation and bladder control. Whether you're recovering postpartum, managing mild stress urinary incontinence, or simply want to maintain pelvic health as you age, this device offers a structured, evidence-informed approach.

Pelvic floor dysfunction is far more common than many people realise. The NHS estimates that one in three women who have had a baby will experience some degree of bladder leakage. Voluntary kegel exercises help, but many people struggle to isolate the correct muscles or maintain consistency. That's exactly where a device like the Elektra adds real value — it does some of the work for you, using gentle electrical impulses to trigger muscle contractions you might not be achieving on your own.

How Does the Honey Play Box Elektra Work?

The Elektra uses a process called neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES). A small intravaginal probe delivers low-level electrical pulses that cause the pelvic floor muscles to contract involuntarily. This is the same principle used in clinical physiotherapy settings for pelvic floor rehabilitation. The app connects via Bluetooth and lets you choose from multiple training programmes, adjusting intensity levels as your strength improves.

Low-frequency electrical pulses stimulate the pudendal nerve, triggering pelvic floor muscle contractions
Repeated contractions build muscle strength and endurance over time
App-guided programmes progress intensity gradually, reducing the risk of overexertion
Real-time feedback via the app helps you track sessions and monitor improvement

Who Should Use the Honey Play Box Elektra?

This device is designed for adults with a vagina who want to strengthen their pelvic floor muscles. It's particularly well-suited to those who find voluntary kegel exercises difficult to perform correctly, or who haven't seen results from traditional exercises alone. If you've been told by a GP or physiotherapist that pelvic floor training would benefit you, the Elektra offers a convenient at-home option.

Postpartum individuals looking to restore pelvic floor strength after vaginal delivery
Those experiencing mild to moderate stress urinary incontinence (leaking when coughing, sneezing, or exercising)
People going through perimenopause or menopause, when oestrogen decline can weaken pelvic tissues
Anyone who struggles to correctly identify and contract their pelvic floor muscles voluntarily

Price range (UK)	£64.99	£10–£40 typically

Is the Elektra Clinically Suitable and How Should It Be Stored?

Before using any e-stim kegel training set, it's worth checking whether it's appropriate for your individual circumstances. Do not use this device if you have a cardiac pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or any other active implanted electronic device. It is also contraindicated during pregnancy, in the presence of an active pelvic or vaginal infection, or within six weeks of pelvic surgery. If you have epilepsy or a history of pelvic organ prolapse, speak to your GP before starting. You can also explore our range of electrical health and diagnostic devices for related products.

Specifications of Honey Play Box Elektra E-Stim Kegel Training Set

What Is the Honey Play Box Elektra and What Is It Used For?

The Honey Play Box Elektra is an app-controlled electrical stimulation kegel training set designed to strengthen the pelvic floor musculature. It is used by adults with a vagina who wish to improve pelvic floor muscle tone, manage mild stress urinary incontinence, support postpartum recovery, or address pelvic floor weakness associated with hormonal changes during menopause. The device works by delivering gentle, low-level electrical pulses via an intravaginal probe, causing the pelvic floor muscles to contract in a controlled, progressive manner. It is not a medicinal product and contains no active pharmaceutical ingredients.

Pelvic floor muscle training is recommended by the NHS as a first-line treatment for stress urinary incontinence and is widely used in physiotherapy-led rehabilitation programmes. The Elektra brings this approach into the home environment, guided by a smartphone app that structures your training and tracks your progress over time.

What Do You Need to Know Before Using the Honey Play Box Elektra?

This device is not suitable for everyone. Read the following contraindications carefully before use.

Do not use if you have a cardiac pacemaker, implanted cardioverter-defibrillator, or any other active implanted electronic device
Do not use during pregnancy
Do not use if you have an active vaginal or pelvic infection, including bacterial vaginosis, thrush, or a sexually transmitted infection
Do not use within six weeks of pelvic or abdominal surgery, or following vaginal delivery until cleared by your midwife or GP
Do not use if you have been diagnosed with epilepsy
Do not use over areas of broken, irritated, or inflamed skin
Do not use if you have a known sensitivity to the probe materials (medical-grade silicone)
Consult your GP if you have pelvic organ prolapse before beginning any e-stim programme

There are no known drug interactions associated with this device, as it is non-pharmacological. However, if you are using any topical vaginal treatments — such as those available in our thrush treatments range — allow any active treatment course to complete before using the Elektra.

How Should You Use the Honey Play Box Elektra?

Always read the manufacturer's instructions supplied with the device before first use. The following steps outline the general usage process.

Charge the Elektra probe fully using the supplied USB cable before first use
Download the Honey Play Box app from the App Store or Google Play and create an account
Apply a generous amount of water-based lubricant to the probe tip — never use silicone-based lubricants, as these can degrade the probe material
Insert the probe gently into the vaginal canal in a comfortable position, either lying down or seated
Open the app and connect to the device via Bluetooth
Select a training programme appropriate to your current level — beginners should start at the lowest intensity setting
Allow the session to run for the recommended duration (typically 15–20 minutes)
After the session, remove the probe, clean thoroughly with a toy-safe antibacterial cleaner, rinse with warm water, and allow to dry fully before storing

Indication	User Group	Recommended Intensity	Session Frequency
Pelvic floor strengthening (general)	Adults with a vagina	Start low, increase gradually	3–5 times per week
Postpartum recovery (after GP clearance)	Postnatal adults	Lowest setting initially	3 times per week
Mild stress urinary incontinence	Adults with a vagina	As tolerated per app guidance	4–5 times per week

What Are the Possible Side Effects of the Honey Play Box Elektra?

As with any electrical stimulation device, some users may experience mild effects, particularly during the initial sessions when the body is adjusting to the stimulation. These are generally short-lived.

Common side effects:

Mild localised discomfort or tingling sensation during use
Temporary muscle soreness or fatigue in the pelvic floor after sessions
Mild vaginal irritation if lubricant is not used or if the probe is not cleaned properly

Less common side effects:

Increased urinary urgency in the first few sessions (usually resolves as muscles adapt)
Skin sensitivity or redness at the point of contact if intensity is set too high
Discomfort if the probe is incorrectly positioned — always reposition before increasing intensity

If you experience persistent pain, unusual discharge, bleeding, or any worsening of symptoms, stop using the device immediately and consult your GP. You may also find it helpful to explore our pain relief range if mild post-session muscle discomfort is a concern.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I buy the Honey Play Box Elektra kegel training set in the UK?

You can buy the Honey Play Box Elektra e-stim kegel training set directly from Cured Pharmacy, a GPhC-registered UK online pharmacy, for £64.99. Orders are dispatched with discreet packaging and tracked delivery. It is also available through selected sexual health and wellness retailers online.

How does the Honey Play Box Elektra e-stim device work?

The Elektra uses neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) to deliver gentle electrical pulses via an intravaginal probe, causing the pelvic floor muscles to contract involuntarily. This mimics the effect of voluntary kegel exercises but can be more effective for people who struggle to isolate the correct muscles. The app guides you through progressive training programmes to build strength over time.

How do I use the Honey Play Box Elektra step by step?

Charge the device fully, download the Honey Play Box app, and apply a water-based lubricant to the probe before insertion. Connect via Bluetooth, select a programme in the app, and allow the session to run for the recommended 15–20 minutes. Clean the probe thoroughly after every session with a toy-safe antibacterial cleaner and store it dry.

How often should I use the Elektra kegel training set each week?

Most pelvic floor training protocols recommend using the device three to five times per week, with rest days in between to allow muscle recovery. The in-app programmes are structured to guide your frequency and intensity progression. Overuse can cause temporary muscle fatigue, so follow the app's recommendations rather than increasing sessions too quickly.

Are there any side effects from using an e-stim kegel device?

Some users experience mild tingling, localised discomfort, or temporary pelvic floor muscle soreness during or after initial sessions — this is normal and usually settles within a few uses. Less commonly, users may notice increased urinary urgency in the first week as the muscles adapt. If you experience persistent pain, unusual discharge, or bleeding, stop use immediately and speak to your GP.

Who is the Honey Play Box Elektra suitable for?

The Elektra is suitable for adults with a vagina who want to strengthen their pelvic floor, including those experiencing mild stress urinary incontinence, postpartum pelvic floor weakness, or pelvic floor changes related to menopause. It is particularly helpful for people who find voluntary kegel exercises difficult to perform correctly. Always check the contraindications before first use.

Who should not use the Elektra e-stim kegel device?

Do not use the Elektra if you have a cardiac pacemaker or any other active implanted electronic device, are pregnant, have an active vaginal or pelvic infection, have had pelvic surgery within the last six weeks, or have epilepsy. People with pelvic organ prolapse should consult their GP before starting any e-stim programme. You can browse our women's health range for alternative pelvic health support options.

How long does it take to see results from using the Elektra?

Clinical evidence on pelvic floor muscle training suggests that noticeable improvements in muscle strength and bladder control can occur within 8–12 weeks of consistent use, though individual results vary depending on baseline muscle tone and frequency of sessions. The NHS recommends committing to pelvic floor exercises for at least three months before assessing results. Tracking your sessions in the app can help you stay consistent and monitor progress.

What is the difference between the Elektra and a standard kegel exerciser?

A standard kegel exerciser relies entirely on voluntary muscle contractions, which means you need to correctly identify and engage your pelvic floor muscles yourself. The Elektra uses electrical stimulation to trigger contractions passively, making it more accessible for people with very weak pelvic floors or those who cannot isolate the muscles voluntarily. The app connectivity also provides structured, progressive training that most standard devices lack.

Can I use the Elektra after having a baby?

You should not use any intravaginal e-stim device until you have been cleared by your midwife or GP following vaginal delivery — this is typically at your six-week postnatal check. After clearance, starting at the lowest intensity setting and building gradually is strongly advised. If you had a caesarean section or experienced significant perineal trauma, seek specific guidance from your healthcare provider before starting.

What lubricant should I use with the Honey Play Box Elektra?

Always use a water-based lubricant with the Elektra probe — silicone-based lubricants can degrade the medical-grade silicone material of the probe over time, affecting both hygiene and device longevity. Apply a generous amount to the probe tip before each insertion. Avoid oil-based lubricants for the same reason.

How do I clean and maintain the Elektra probe?

After every session, remove the probe and clean it with a toy-safe antibacterial cleaner, then rinse thoroughly with warm water and allow it to air dry completely before storing. Do not submerge the charging port in water. Store the dry probe in its provided pouch, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

What are the alternatives to the Honey Play Box Elektra for pelvic floor training?

Alternatives include standard weighted kegel balls, biofeedback pelvic floor trainers, and NHS-referred pelvic floor physiotherapy, which remains the gold standard for moderate to severe pelvic floor dysfunction. For those with mild symptoms, voluntary pelvic floor exercises as described on the NHS website are a free and effective starting point. You can also explore our condoms and sexual health collection for related wellness products.

How long can I continue using the Elektra kegel training set?

There is no fixed maximum duration for pelvic floor training — many people use devices like the Elektra as part of an ongoing maintenance routine once initial strengthening goals are met. The NHS recommends continuing pelvic floor exercises long-term to maintain muscle tone, particularly after childbirth or during and after menopause. If you have specific clinical goals, discuss a structured programme duration with your GP or pelvic health physiotherapist.

What does the latest research say about electrical stimulation for pelvic floor training?

Research published in peer-reviewed physiotherapy and urology journals supports the use of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) as an effective adjunct to voluntary pelvic floor muscle training, particularly for women with stress urinary incontinence or very weak baseline pelvic floor tone. NICE guidance on urinary incontinence in women (NG123) acknowledges the role of supervised pelvic floor muscle training as a first-line intervention. Home-use e-stim devices are increasingly recognised as a practical way to extend clinical rehabilitation into everyday life.

How Should You Use the Honey Play Box Elektra?

Before your first session, charge the Elektra probe fully using the supplied USB cable and download the Honey Play Box app on your iOS or Android device. Always apply a water-based lubricant to the probe before insertion — this improves comfort and conductivity. Never use silicone-based or oil-based lubricants, as these can damage the probe material.

Follow these steps for each session:

What Is the Correct Dose of the Honey Play Box Elektra?

There is no pharmacological dose for this device, but session frequency and intensity should be tailored to your individual needs and current pelvic floor strength. Starting at the lowest intensity and increasing gradually over several weeks is strongly recommended to avoid muscle fatigue or discomfort.

Use the following table as a general guide:

When Is the Best Time to Use the Honey Play Box Elektra?

There is no single "best" time of day to use the Elektra — consistency matters far more than timing. Many users find it easiest to incorporate sessions into a relaxing part of their daily routine, such as in the evening when lying down. Avoid using the device immediately after vigorous exercise when pelvic floor muscles may already be fatigued, and do not use it during menstruation if you find it uncomfortable.

Allow at least one rest day between sessions to give your pelvic floor muscles adequate recovery time, particularly in the first few weeks of use.

How Long Can You Use the Honey Play Box Elektra For?

The Elektra can be used as part of a long-term pelvic floor maintenance routine with no fixed end date. Initial strengthening programmes typically run for 8–12 weeks, after which many users transition to a maintenance schedule of two to three sessions per week. The NHS recommends continuing pelvic floor exercises indefinitely to maintain muscle tone, particularly following childbirth or during menopause.

If you have specific clinical goals — such as resolving stress urinary incontinence — discuss your progress with your GP or a pelvic health physiotherapist at regular intervals to ensure the programme remains appropriate for your needs.

Do not exceed the recommended dose. If in doubt, speak to your pharmacist.

What Are the Most Common Side Effects of the Honey Play Box Elektra?

Most users tolerate the Elektra well, particularly once they have adjusted to the sensation of electrical stimulation. During the first few sessions, it is normal to experience some unfamiliar feelings as your pelvic floor muscles respond to the impulses. These effects are generally mild and short-lived.

Mild tingling or buzzing sensation during use
Temporary pelvic floor muscle soreness or fatigue after sessions
Mild vaginal irritation if lubricant is insufficient or the probe is not cleaned properly between uses

What Are the Less Common Side Effects of the Honey Play Box Elektra?

A smaller number of users may experience the following effects, particularly if intensity is increased too quickly or sessions are too frequent in the early stages of use. Reducing intensity or taking additional rest days usually resolves these issues.

Increased urinary urgency or frequency in the first one to two weeks of use
Localised skin sensitivity or redness if the probe is used at too high an intensity
Discomfort or cramping if the probe is incorrectly positioned — always reposition before increasing intensity
Temporary worsening of pelvic floor symptoms if the device is overused without adequate rest

What Are the Serious Side Effects of the Honey Play Box Elektra?

Serious adverse effects are rare when the device is used correctly and within the stated contraindications. However, you should stop using the Elektra immediately and seek medical advice if you experience any of the following.

Persistent or worsening pelvic pain that does not resolve after stopping use
Unusual vaginal discharge or odour following use, which may indicate infection
Vaginal bleeding not associated with menstruation
Cardiac symptoms such as palpitations or chest discomfort — seek emergency care immediately

What Should You Do If You Experience Side Effects?

If you experience mild discomfort, reduce the intensity setting in the app and ensure you are using adequate water-based lubricant. Allow additional rest days between sessions and do not increase intensity until symptoms have fully resolved. For persistent or concerning symptoms, discontinue use and contact your GP or a pelvic health physiotherapist for assessment. Do not attempt to continue using the device through significant pain.

If you suspect an allergic reaction to the probe material — such as persistent itching, swelling, or rash — stop use immediately and seek medical advice. Medical-grade silicone is generally well tolerated, but individual sensitivities can occur.

Can the Honey Play Box Elektra Interact With Other Treatments?

As a non-pharmacological device, the Elektra has no known drug interactions. However, it should not be used concurrently with active topical vaginal treatments, including antifungal creams or pessaries, until the treatment course is complete and any irritation has resolved. Do not use the device alongside any other intravaginal electrical device simultaneously. If you are undergoing pelvic physiotherapy, inform your physiotherapist that you are using a home e-stim device so they can coordinate your programme appropriately.

If you are concerned about any side effects, contact your pharmacist or GP immediately.
