Is your body changing in ways you didn't expect?
Many women experience:
- bladder leaks when running, laughing or coughing
- pelvic organ prolapse symptoms
- a weakened core after pregnancy or during menopause
- back pain or poor posture
- loss of confidence in movement and sport
These problems are common but they are not something you simply have to live with.
Hypopressive exercise is an evidence-informed method designed to restore deep core function and support pelvic floor health.
What are Hypopressives?
Hypopressives are a specialised breathing and postural technique that helps retrain the deep abdominal muscles and pelvic floor reflexively.
Unlike traditional abdominal exercises or repetitive Kegels, Hypopressives:
- reduce pressure on the pelvic organs
- activate the deep core muscles automatically
- improve posture and spinal alignment
- support recovery from pelvic floor dysfunction
They are widely used in Europe by physiotherapists to help women with:
- pelvic organ prolapse
- urinary incontinence
- postpartum recovery
- menopause-related core weakness
- sports performance
Hypopressives Exercise is powerful, simple, quick, and deeply relaxing – making it suitable for all ages, shapes, sizes, and fitness levels -from motherhood into midlife & the menopause and beyond.

FAQs
Do Hypopressives help pelvic organ prolapse?
Hypopressives reduce abdominal pressure and improve reflex pelvic floor activation, which can help support prolapse management.
Are Hypopressives better than Kegels?
They work differently. Instead of isolated contractions, Hypopressives train the pelvic floor reflexively through breathing and posture.
Are Hypopressives safe during menopause?
Yes. Many women find Hypopressives particularly helpful for rebuilding core strength during menopause.
Can runners do Hypopressives?
Yes. Many runners use Hypopressives to improve breathing mechanics and pelvic floor support during running.
