Do you need help improving the function and control of your pelvic floor muscles?
In this specialist five-week course, you will learn tried-and-tested techniques to support and restore your pelvic floor muscles using floor-based exercises, releases, breathwork, and light hand weights/resistance.
Like any other muscle, the pelvic floor needs strengthening and stretching to ensure correct function. The pelvic floor muscles help with bladder and bowel control and sexual functions and support the pelvis and lower back.
They can get weakened by hormone changes, menopause, and peri-menopause, hyper-mobility, aging, pregnancy, birth, operations, weak back or weak abs, or a sedentary lifestyle.
Leakage, stress incontinence, lack of sexual function, over-activity and tightness, weakness, or prolapse- we can help.
They can also get overactive and tight from an overly controlled tight abdominal wall, clenching, stress, and poor breathing.
- We'll show you how to use the breath and movement for optimal pelvic floor activation.
- Learn how to activate the pelvic floor functionally through movement.
- Develop exercises within the studio that you can also do at home.
All classes can be taken in isolation, but it is recommended you come for the full 5 weeks for development and progress.
Course run by Ellen Tipping, specialist trainer in women's health and dysfunction, pelvic floor healing, c-section healing, abdominal separation, pre and post natal, and Pilates expert.
