FAQ
What are the benefits?
Low Pressure Fitness can decrease incontinence, help heal diastasis recti, prevents hernia, improve posture, decrease low back and abdominal pain, decrease constipation, reduce period pain, decrease waist size, increase hamstring flexibility, and more.
Who is Low Pressure Fitness for?
Almost everyone can benefit from Low Pressure Fitness in some way. However, those that benefit the most include postpartum women, those who have any any abdominal surgery (including c-section and hysterectomy) and female athletes who currently/used to engage in high impact activity.
Is there anybody that should not do Low Pressure Fitness?
The vacuum breathing that is taught as part of Low Pressure Fitness is contraindicated for those with some heart and lung conditions, those with high blood pressure and those who are currently pregnant.
How long does it take to see results?
It is different for everybody. I have seen tremendous improvement in posture in 2 sessions. The studies that looked at the effect of LPF on stress incontinence were generally 12 weeks in duration.
What should I know before coming to class?
Bring your own yoga mat
Use the bathroom prior to practice! You will be lifting your bladder! Avoid eating one hour before practicing but especially right before class
Stay hydrated! Before and after the session.
Wear comfortable clothing similar to what you would wear to yoga. A top that leaves the belly visible is recommended so that I can see how your ribcage is moving. Feel free to dress in layers.
