The patient can follow her results as well as her progress in the application and unlock new universes according to the points obtained. Much of the effort of Fizimed's technical teams is focused on balancing a product, combining the quality and safety of a medical device, with a fun application to empower each woman. One goal: the simplicity of the product and the interface for home use.Beyond the product, the Fizimed team is committed to the fight against taboos related to urinary incontinence problems affecting one in ten women. She wants to "demystify" this topic so that every woman can find her adapted solution. An EMY community is being born on social networks in which the feminine hassles are put into images and discussed with humor, while talking about innovations that can simplify their daily lives.In summary, EMY by Fizimed is the connected and fun medical probe that allows women wishing to regain control of their perineum to do their home exercises. It was developed by a dynamic Alsatian start-up whose ambition is to remove taboos on a public health issue.
