About Nikki:
Nikki has been a health and fitness coach since 2009., specialising in women’s health and rehab back to exercise using Hypopressives. She had twin boys in her early thirties and this led her on her own post natal recovery journey and ultimately to discover that women’s health services are inadequate and often leave women feeling desperate and alone.
Nikki ran her own bootcamp business as well as a successful buggy version for new Mums and in 2013 discovered the power of a holistic approach using Hypopressives. She struggled for over 10 years with “Leaking” and within just 3 months of doing Hypopressives her incontinence was gone. She now runs training and education courses in Hypopressive exercise through the company she Co- founded, UK Hypopressives.
