This uniquely designed pelvic wand is covered in silky smooth, medical-grade silicone for comfortable insertion, use and removal.

The Intimate Rose wands have uniquely sized ends are designed to be used by all genders and are designed so that either end can be used vaginally or rectally for relief of trigger points. They are shaped to reach both superficial and deep pelvic floor muscles for relief of pelvic pain.

The Intimate Rose Pelvic Wand is a worthwhile option for those experiencing:
- Vaginismus, Dyspareunia, Painful Penetration: A condition involving involuntary contractions of the muscles surrounding the vagina, often resulting in inability to tolerate penetration during intercourse. The wand helps to address pain and discomfort caused by overly tight pelvic floor muscles and improve flexibility of the muscles for comfort during penetration or medical exam.
- Vestibulodynia: Pain in the area outside of and at the entry to the vaginal canal. The wand helps to improve flexibility of the pelvic floor muscles and vaginal tissue to decrease pain at the opening of the vagina.
- Pelvic Floor Tension Myalgia: Pain due to chronically tight or shortened pelvic floor muscles. The wand helps to address painful trigger points and tender points for relief of tension myalgia.
- Levator Ani Syndrome: A condition involving tightness or pain in the deep layer of the pelvic floor muscles. The wand helps to address tender points, trigger points, and offers the ability to perform gentle myofascial release of the deepest layer of the pelvic floor.
- Endometriosis: A painful disorder in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus, the endometrium, grows outside the uterus. The wand helps to address painful tender points in the pelvic floor for relief of pelvic floor muscle pain. The Temperature Wand may add an extra element of relief for this condition as well.

How to Use the Intimate Rose Wand
Step 1: Decide which end to use. The curved end with the pointed tip is helpful for addressing trigger points closer to the entrance of the vagina or rectum. The longer, rounded end is often helpful for reaching deep tender points in the rectum or vagina.
Step 2: Use a generous amount of water-based lubricant on the desired treatment end of the wand, as well as the opening to the body where the wand will be used. The use of a water-based lubricant is important to preserve the medical grade silicone of the wand and aid with insertion.
Step 3: Start by lying on your back with your knees bent and feet planted. Some people may prefer to lie on their side instead. If that’s the case, be sure to bend your knees and support your top leg with a folded pillow between your knees.
Step 4: Begin your session by breathing in and allowing your belly to expand, followed by exhaling, allowing your belly to slowly fall. The act of slowly exhaling helps to naturally relax the pelvic floor muscles. Repeat the deep breathing pattern and continue to do so steadily and deliberately. Gently bring the wand to the body and carefully insert it on an exhale.
Step 5: Gently sweep the end of the wand until you encounter a tender point. When you find tender point, gently compress the end of the wand into the tender point with the same firmness you would use to check a tomato for ripeness. For example, don’t press so hard you squish your tomato.
Step 6: Maintain gentle pressure on the tender point and slowly move your bent knee left and right until you find a position that stops the discomfort in the pelvic floor muscle. When you find this position, remain there for 1 to 2 minutes to allow the tension point to fully release. Continue to breathe deeply.
Repeat this process 1 or 2 times per day as needed.
