How MyPeriodPal Works – MyPeriodPal

MyPeriodPal uses reflexology to relieve menstrual discomfort.

Reflexology is the application of pressure to areas on the feet or hands for soothing purposes; when pressure is applied to an area, effects are felt on the corresponding organ or system.

MyPeriodPal applies pressure to the uterus pressure point, found on your inner ankle.

Within minutes, relief from menstrual discomfort will be felt, including, but not limited to menstrual cramping, lower back pain, inner thigh pain and more.

Disclaimer: Although MyPeriodPal may relieve your pain associated with menstrual discomfort, it does not cure any underlying causes. MyPeriodPal is not intended to prevent, cure, treat, or diagnose any disease.

How did you come up with MyPeriodPal?

I was living and working in a Korean boarding school in Pampanga, Philippines when I gave birth to my son.

A few months later I was having menstrual cramping, but still supplementally breastfeeding my son so I couldn’t take pain medication.

A Korean colleague of mine told me to press on the inside of my ankle and when I did, all of my discomfort disappeared.

I developed MyPeriodPal to keep that pressure applied so I could continue on with my day and still have relief.

How should I use MyPeriodPal?

MyPeriodPal is most effective when used at the onset of discomfort. This is different for every woman, for that reason I highly recommend visiting the Testimonials site to see how other women like you have had success.

Most women prefer to use them at work, school, overnight and while driving. You can comfortably do household chores while wearing low-top shoes or sandals/flipflops.

It is not recommended to wear them during heavy activity, sports or while wearing high-top shoes or boots.

How do I clean MyPeriodPal?

MyPeriodPal bands are made from neoprene (like a wetsuit), hook and loop fastener (like Velcro) and silicone rubber.

MyPeriodPal are a hand-wash-only item. They can be submersed in water with a mild detergent. They should not be machine washed.
