Doctor Fingers Overlooked Aspect of Women's "Pelvic Fitness"

A home run in new medicine? Perhaps not, but certainly she's gotten to third base.

So Dr. Romanzi developed her own concept of “pelvic fitness” for healthy women. She said that Phit (www.theperfectphit.com) will help women get “in shape from the inside out.”

The spa is essentially a gussied-up examination room down the hall from Dr. Romanzi’s medical practice. At the spa, the signature treatment will be a $150 gynecological exam — in which a client contracts her pelvic muscles around Dr. Romanzi’s fingers — to determine by feel whether muscle tone is "strong," "moderate," "weak," or "help me find my car keys and we'll drive out." [The end of this sentence may have been rewritten for accuracy -- ed.]

Dr. Romanzi likes to call the vaginal workouts she prescribes “personal training.” Clients could also use an in-office electrostimulation machine to improve pelvic muscle tone or buy a device for home use. Dr. Romanzi said that such treatments are intended to improve bladder control; she said pelvic training may also lead to more intense orgasms.

Well, obviously. Oh, she means for the women.

It's a juicy idea. I hope she doesn't muff it.
