Releve Vaginal Splint

A Vaginal Splint Designed for 360° Support

Releve features a soft silicone balloon that inflates to support the vaginal walls, preventing bulges and pouches that could trap stool. Unlike traditional splinting devices with a rigid design, Releve conforms to your natural shape and is adjustable to your preferred size. Its unique design can address multiple forms of pelvic organ prolapse at the same time, making bowel movements easier and more complete with less strain.

Releve is indicated for for the treatement of incomplete evacuation and voiding due to rectocele or cystocele in adult women.

Discover How Releve Works

Releve is user-controlled through a squeeze bulb and an air-release button. After inserting into the vagina, the user can adjust the balloon's size by inflating or deflating it according to their preference. The handle helps in optimally positioning the balloon for bowel movements and ensures that it stays in place. By occupying the vaginal space, Releve aids in preventing rectocele, cystocele, and other forms of pelvic organ prolapse, facilitating more efficient emptying with less strain. There is no need for forceful pressure against the herniated wall. After use, simply deflate, remove, clean, and store the device for future use.

What Sets Releve Apart from Other Vaginal Splinting Devices?

Unlike rigid splinting devices, which have to compromise between insertion size and treatable area, Releve’s insertable portion is the size of a tampon. Users can inflate the device to their desired size, and when finished, the device deflates back to its original insertion size. By inflating the balloon to occupy the entire vagina, Releve eliminates the need to locate the hernia and, most importantly, allows users to relax during a bowel movement. Its curved handle ensures comfortable sitting during use.

Do You Have Incomplete Evacuation Due to Rectocele?

Rectocele is a medical condition where the rectum bulges into the back wall of the vagina. This occurs when the tissue between the rectum and the vagina, known as the rectovaginal septum, weakens. As a result, the rectum can push against the vaginal wall, creating a bulge which can trap stool during bowel movements leading to a feeling of stuck stool and incomplete evacuation.

Symptoms of rectocele may include:

  • A noticeable bulge in the vagina
  • Difficulty with bowel movements or a sensation of incomplete evacuation
  • A feeling of pressure or fullness in the pelvic area

Rectocele is often caused by childbirth, chronic constipation, heavy lifting, or other activities that put pressure on the pelvic floor muscles. Treatment options vary depending on the severity of the condition and can range from lifestyle changes and pelvic floor exercises to surgical intervention.

Contraindications

If you have either of the following conditions, you should NOT purchase or use the Releve Vaginal Splint:

  • Rectoceles with permanent vaginal protrusion (Grade 3 or higher), rectal prolapse or uterine prolapse.
  • Open wounds in the tissue inside or surrounding the vagina.

Pregnant women should refer to their physician for guidance prior to purchasing or using the Releve Vaginal Splint.

Important Considerations

Releve may not work for everyone, as every body is different. While many users find relief, we cannot guarantee that Releve will be effective for you. We encourage you to consult with a pelvic health professional prior to ordering to determine if Releve is the right option for your needs.

Patient Success Story

I have been using Releve for about two years and feel that it fits its name very well. I have been intending to get surgery for rectocele repair, but have been too ill to undergo the procedure. Luckily, Releve has been able to tide me over until I can.

I honestly don't know how I would live without it. I have tried other splinting devices, but they don't work for me. The fact that Releve forms to the shape of my particular body has made it much more effective than anything else. It was recommended to me by my physical therapist, and I am so glad she told me about it.

I'm also grateful for the fact that the Releve staff is so easy to work with and accommodating. I highly recommend this product to ladies who are probably at their wits' end, as I was.

The Releve device has been a game changer in my practice as a pelvic health physical therapist! It has already helped SO many of my patients with bowel dysfunction and prolapse, and there is nothing better.

It is so refreshing to find an alternative to digital vaginal splinting, and something that is super easy and user friendly for my patients to operate.

Currently, my patient is finding your product helpful as she has a more sizeable cystocele and rectocele, and the inflatable splint better supports the entire vagina.
