What is it indicated for?

Surface electromyography is a safe and effective technique for relaxation training and muscle re-education.

Using internal perineometer electrodes such as the PerryVaginal:

EMG biofeedback is a safe and effective technique for the assessment and treatment of pelvic floor dysfunction, monitoring the performance of Kegel exercises. The pelvic floor muscles include the Levator Ani group as well as the pubococcygeus (PC), ileococcygeus, and coccygeus. These are skeletal muscles which respond to re-education, strengthening, endurance building, and relaxation.

Conditions that can be assessed or treated using this technique include: stress incontinence, mixed incontinence, and urge incontinence.
