Pelvic Fitness Spa

(New York City) The trend in medical spas is widening. A New York gynecologist, Dr. Lauri Romanzi, has opened the first Manhattan spa dedicated to strengthening and grooming women's genital areas.

The spa is named Phit for "pelvic health integrated techniques."

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 weak, moderate or strong.

Dr. Romanzi likes to call the vaginal workouts she prescribes “personal training.”

Not being a woman, I can't really judge the value of the fingers-in-vagina procedure but I do believe that having to pay $150 for it is somewhat stiff -- especially since there is probably an entire demographic group that would do it for no charge.
