What are Hypopressives?

Hypopressive exercises are a unique blend of posture and breathing techniques designed to reduce pressure in your abdominal and pelvic regions. These exercises offer a range of benefits, including:

 

  • Pelvic Floor Health: By lowering intra-abdominal pressure, these exercises help take pressure off the pelvic floor muscles, making them a great option for preventing, improving and rehabilitating pelvic floor dysfunction and organ prolapse.

     

  • Core Strength: These exercises gently activate your deep abdominal muscles, which indirectly helps support your overall core strength and stability.

     

  • Posture: Awareness of spinal alignment naturally improves your posture and will lead you to better overall body mechanics.

     

  • Stress Relief & Anxiety Reduction: The calming, rhythmic breathing used in hypopressives helps to soothe the nervous system, reducing stress and anxiety.

 

A key component of hypopressive exercises is the controlled apnoea, this is a breath-hold phase which helps amplify the changes in pressure that occur naturally throughout the breath cycle.

An excellent, effective course with flexible options for accessing it so great if you've got a busy schedule.  
I think I have really benefited from the deep breathing. I find I am using it in different circumstances. I feel I have better control over both breathing and contracting my pelvic floor.  I like the freedom of using zoom and Julie was as efficient as ever in providing us with the links and the homework
I enjoyed Julie's new hypopressives online course which takes aspects of Pilates a bit further, focussing on breathing techniques to strengthen core muscles and the pelvic floor. I would definitely recommend it.
