Who Are Soul Source?
Soul Source Vaginal Dilators
Soul Source is a specialist manufacturer of vaginal dilators (you may hear them referred to as vaginal trainers or vagina dilators), owners Jane and Lloyd Silverstein have been supporting individuals to manage their intimate health and sexual health since the 1990s. At Pelvic Relief we have worked with Soul Source since our company was founded in 2015. We believe Soul Source’s unique range of graded vaginal dilators are best-in-class and uniquely suited to meet the specific needs of our customers.
Dilation Therapy
Vaginal dilators are designed to meet the needs of patients at different stages of dilation therapy whether through cancer treatment or to manage MRKH, or a pelvic pain condition such as vaginismus, dyspareunia or vaginal stenosis . Soul Source silicone dilators were designed by Jillian Romm, a highly regarded sex therapist at Oregon Health and Science University and a Gynaecologist colleague. They are made from medical-grade silicone free of both latex and BPS. The high grade silicone is flexible, smooth yet resilient with a texture that resembles body tissue to ensure comfort. They were designed specifically recognising the intimate nature of these products; they do not resemble adult toys and are in a pastel colour palette, the result was beautiful, non-threatening and comfortable dilators.
Often overlooked when treating gynaecological and pelvic health conditions, a vaginal dilator set can form a vital part of a rehabilitation programme. Due to the delicate nature of the mucosal vaginal tissue it is important to select materials that are hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and free from phthalates and latex and are easy to clean to protect the vagina. It also means they are suitable for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
Soul Source silicone medical dilators come in 8 different sizes and can be bought individually or as a set of dilators (sometimes referred to as training sets) in graded sizes. The flexibility in purchase options allows individuals to select the dilator size that meets their needs. This allows users to progress gradually and comfortably through their therapy. The small graded increments within training sets is key to reduce discomfort and is essential for those starting dilation therapy, enabling therapy without undue stress.
The skin-safe material is recommended by healthcare professionals. Gynaecologists, Pelvic Physiotherapists and Psychosexual Theapists specialising in pelvic health all recommend Soul Source products for their patients across the world.
"Soul Source dilators are an excellent tool in my practice. Their design and material quality provide my patients with the comfort and effectiveness they need to follow through with their dilation therapy consistently." Dr. Heather Jeffcoat D.P.T, specialist Women’s Health Physiotherapist and author of Sex Without Pain: A Self-Treatment Guide To The Sex Life You Deserve.
