What’s the deal with Hypopressives?
Hypopressives are not a new phenomenon – who knew?
- Hypopressives have been around since the 1980’s where they were originally designed by Marcel Caufriez – his initial programme was solely for post-natal women who had pelvic floor dysfunction or pelvic organ prolapse.
- The ‘Method’ has been taken and adapted further by Tamara Rial and Piti Pinsach to not only target the pelvic floor but also the core through resistance and alignment work alongside the very important breathing protocol.
- Hypopressives have now been developed further into the multi disciplinary method taught by The international Hypopressive Council a worldwide collection of the top Hypopressive coaches in the world.
- The success of Hypopressives both as the Hypopressive Method in Belgium and as Low pressure fitness in Spain and South America and now as Hypopressives with the International Hypopressive Council in the treatment and prevention of POP is what lead me to using it to treat my own POP and incontinence and from that point to training to be able to bring Hypopressives to Scotland.
