Not all body parts are treated equally. Take the vulva. About half of the world's population has one, but most people refrain from uttering the word. Even worse — a staggering 80% of UK women cannot accurately identify the vulva. Aiming to dismantle the discomfort and misinformation surrounding female anatomy, Luna Daily has introduced a Vulva Therapy Hotline.
Anyone calling 0800-233-LUNA will be treated to a playful series of four immersive audio sessions. Created with a cognitive behavioral therapist, a gynecologist and a psychosexual therapy expert, the hotline employs techniques such as imagination-based exposure, systematic desensitization and repetitive practice — all designed to normalize the word 'vulva' and associated concepts. In the first session, for example, callers are asked to imagine having to shout 'vulva!!' in a busy park.
Not knowing the difference between a vagina and a vulva can impact a person's health treatment and outcomes. Considering it sells bodycare products for 'head, vulva, knees and toes,' Luna Daily obviously has skin in the game, but as the brand points out, "How can we expect our vulvas to thrive if we don't talk about them?"
