A New Option For Better Orgasms – The LUNA Smart Bead
A lot of my female clients come in for sex coaching to learn how to have their first orgasm. One of the tips that I most frequently give these clients is to exercise their PC muscles. These muscles wrap around the pelvis, and strengthening them can increase a woman’s likelihood to reach orgasm. They can also lead to longer and more powerful orgasms.
You can exercise your PC muscles on your own by simply squeezing and releasing them several times in a row. But a newly-released product from Swedish sex toy company LELO claims it can help optimize your PC workout by creating a custom “training routine”.
Recently I got a chance to speak with the team at LELO and ask some questions about the LUNA Smart Bead.
Can you tell my readers a little bit about the LUNA Smart Bead?
The LUNA Smart Bead™ creates training programs depending on the orgasm potential of the user. There are 5 exercise routines in total, 1-5, each lasting around 5 minutes.
Basically it works on the principle of the woman squeezing when it vibrates, and resting when it stops. For the higher levels, there will be longer and more frequent squeezing with less rest periods in between. The vibrations are not meant to be powerful – they are meant to guide you on when to squeeze and relax according to your individual needs.
The first time you use the LUNA Smart Bead™ you begin in level 3, then depending on your performance, the level will increase and decrease for the next time you turn on.
What makes the Smart Bead better that other Kegel exercisers?
The inspiration behind the LUNA Smart Bead™ is that it works like a personal trainer, creating a vibration-guided program that allows you to get the most from your training in as little time as possible. Of course, this combined with the way it which it measures and tailors your exercise routine as you improve over time puts the LUNA Smart Bead™ ahead of its competitors.
At LELO we have more than 10 R&D expertise in this category, and I would describe this product as one of the most sophisticated LELOs we have ever created.
What information are the touch sensors gathering?
In the same way as a marathon runner has different strength levels to a sprinter, the measurement needs to be more than simply one dimension. Actually in the case of the LUNA Smart Bead™ the touch-sensors are gathering information on three parameters.
The first is your reaction time when you feel the vibrations, the second is the maximum squeeze you manage in any given routine and the third is how long you can hold the squeeze without relaxing when the Smart Bead is vibrating.
This information is then aggregated to set an exercise level based on these parameters, and as performance improves across the board, you have the ability to progress up through the training levels.
Most of the other Kegel exercisers on the market are comprised of two weighted orbs, including LELO’s own LUNA Beads. What was the thought behind creating an entirely new shape for the Smart Bead?
As is well known, the LUNA Beads™ are the bestselling Pleasure Beads in the world, but they work on the principle of using weights to train. We used the Ben Wa balls precedent because this allowed us to give wearers the option of graduating through different weights, with a product that was optimally between being small and heavy enough to challenge the wearer.
On the other hand, the Smart Bead works in a different way – rather than using weights, it measures reactions time, your maximum squeeze and ability to hold. So we designed a product that would sit comfortably within, provide enough surface area for the touch sensors to receive accurate information, and also act as a static device to squeeze around, ensuring you enhance your orgasms correctly.
Here’s the honest truth from yours truly: you don’t need a product like the Smart Bead. You can do the same exercises on your own.
But the thing I like most about this product is that it functions as a vibrator too, bringing the element of pleasure into PC exercise. I love the idea of ending your workout on an extra-fun note!
