Jade eggs have been used traditionally for thousands of years in Asia as part of Taoist practice. Many modern devices have been developed since but we love the natural materials that are used to make Jade Eggs and have made them easily available in New Zealand. The crystal qualities of our Jade eggs hold energy and healing properties in themselves. Pelvic Floor Strength is a New Zealand based company with exercises and advice provided by a Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist. We aim to provide up to date and detailed information to help you on your journey to a healthy and supportive pelvic floor.
We have done extensive research into sourcing the materials used for Jade Eggs and include: nephrite jade, rose, quartz, amethyst and obsidian. We ensure that all eggs are made from naturally occurring, un-dyed and untreated stones.
True jade is highly sought after and comes in many different forms dependent on its origin. This includes Chinese, Burmese, Canadian and New Zealand Jade. The traditional light translucent Jade from China no longer exists apart from very old ornaments and carvings already made. It is often obtained from the centre of the stone with cheaper but still true jade obtained from the outer part of the stone. Many manufacturers try to simulate the aesthetics of this jade by dyeing and treating stones to give it a vibrant green appearance. There are also cheaper more abundant stones of the serpentine variety which are often labelled as Jade: xiujan jade and helu jade. But beware these are not true Jade. Rather a form of serpentine stone with a rich marbled green colour. It is also associated with asbestos fibres which although safe when a stone is whole we would rather not be using these for vaginal use. In addition to this serpentine forms of jade are much softer. See ‘How do I know if my Jade Eggs are real?' for more information. We have obtained high-quality nephrite jade for our Jade Eggs. This is a true jade that comes with gem certification of authenticity. The hardness is superior to any of our stones and the egg of choice when it comes to pelvic floor work. Our other stones available are:
- Rose quartz– a beautiful light pink translucent stone known for its use to facilitate the energy of love
- Obsidian– a rich opaque black stone known for its grounding properties
- Amethyst– a gorgeous translucent purple stone known for its amazing healing properties as well as reconnecting on with their intuition and creative power
All of our Jade eggs are available as sets three which include a: large, medium and small egg to progress with your practice. For those who wish to benefit from the qualities of the different stones we offer a mix of the most popular- nephrite, rose quartz and obsidian. If you’re unsure of how much you’ll use the Jade Eggs but still curious we offer our most superior quality egg the Nephrite Jade Eggs as an individual egg in individual small, medium or large size. We recommend the medium size for all-round use from beginners to advanced Jade Egg users.
