Myths & misconceptions

Let’s clear things up.

Simple answers to the assumptions that often appear when someone first discovers Aniball.

Myth 01

“Aniball stretches the birth canal”

Aniball is not a mechanical dilator. Stretching the birth canal is not the goal.

Myth 02

“Bigger balloons mean better results”

A larger diameter is not a score and does not predict a particular birth result.

Myth 03

“It is mainly a Kegel strength trainer”

Aniball’s philosophy emphasizes body awareness, breathing and relaxation in the context of preparing for birth.

Myth 04

“Using Aniball guarantees an easier birth”

No tool can guarantee a specific childbirth outcome. Experiences and needs are individual.

Myth 05

“Anyone can use it during any pregnancy”

Suitability and timing depend on individual circumstances, including contraindications. Consult a maternity healthcare professional.

Myth 06

“A video is enough to learn safe use”

The video is supplemental only. The complete product instructions and safety information need to be read first.

Myth 07

“A published study proves everything”

Research should be read in context, with methods, limitations and all outcomes considered.

Myth 08

“A used balloon is just as good as a new one”

An intimate-use product has personal hygiene and wear considerations. Do not share Aniball.

A note about safe use

Before using Aniball, please read and follow the complete instructions included with your product, including all warnings and contraindications. If you are pregnant, discuss your individual suitability with your maternity healthcare professional.
