On August 13, 2026, Honey Play Box exhibited at Black Women for Wellness' 2026 Reproductive Justice Conference in Los Angeles, showcasing AIRA — its app-controlled inflatable Kegel ball — alongside other tech-integrated sexual wellness products. XBIZ reported the appearance on August 25. The venue matters more than the booth: a pleasure-tech brand set up a table at a Black women's reproductive justice convening and framed the conversation around pelvic floor health rather than product SKUs.
Why It Matters
Pelvic floor tech has a distribution problem that no amount of Instagram spend solves. The people most likely to benefit — postpartum women, women with incontinence or prolapse, women experiencing pain during sex — are disproportionately reached through clinics, community health organizations, and trusted networks rather than DTC funnels, and Black women in the US face documented gaps in both reproductive care access and clinical pain acknowledgment that make trusted intermediaries more important, not less. Meeting that audience at a reproductive justice conference is a smarter channel strategy than another ad the platforms will reject anyway. It also quietly makes the case that pelvic floor training is preventive health with a pleasure upside rather than a sex toy with a medical excuse — a positioning that matters enormously for whether these devices ever reach clinicians, and eventually, coverage.AIRA itself sits at the seam between medical device and pleasure product, which is exactly where the pelvic health category has been drifting for years. Per Honey Play Box's product listing, it uses pressure-sensing technology to assess pelvic floor strength on a scale from Level D to Level A in a roughly two-minute app-guided assessment, then delivers inflatable workouts targeting specific muscles — an adjustable shaft that expands from 1.1 inches uninflated to a maximum 1.65 inches, with four inflation modes and nine vibration modes. The company positions it against incontinence, pelvic floor weakness, uterine prolapse, and pain during sex. The body-contact material is listed as medical-grade silicone.
The exhibitor framing was deliberately educational. "We were incredibly grateful for the response we received from attendees," said Janice Ochoa, marketing manager at Honey Play Box. "People came by our table curious, engaged, and excited to learn more. It was a great opportunity to introduce AIRA and have open conversations about sexual wellness." Erikan Attah of Black Women for Wellness described the brand's presence as adding "a unique and meaningful dimension" to the conference, creating an environment where attendees "could engage in conversations around sexual wellness, intimacy, and reproductive health openly, without shame or judgment."
Black Women for Wellness is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit focused on the health and wellness of Black women and girls through education, empowerment, and advocacy. Its reproductive justice programming is community-facing rather than industry-facing — which is precisely why a commercial sextech brand showing up there is a departure from the trade-show circuit where most of this category does its business.
