    I went to Bikram in Coolmine last week, I got the introductory offer but unfortunately since I have been I have gotten a major flare up of whiplash from a car accident last year. I had a chat with one of the girls working there and she told me to leave it a few days, my physio has told me to knock it on the head. Am raging, i really enjoyed the class and the facility is great. Anyone thinking about going should try it out but be aware if you have pre-existing injuries.

    But it's super for pre-existing conditions!

    My doctor advised my friend that it would be brilliant for his dodgy back.

    Seriously, I'd check with your GP, not just your physio.....it would be a pity for you to miss out on something so wonderful :)

    Yes you are right to be cautious. Everyone's body is different..... Only you know how you are feeling after class.

    Hi hot yoga people

    I was interested in starting this class I play a lot of gaelic football and my hips are pretty tight. How do you find bikram for opening the hips?

    I would be aiming to do the class once a week to fit in with my other training, how strenuous is it or do you find yourself energised the next day?

    I currently do a yoga class in my gym but nothing like what I have read on here.

    Thanks for any opinions

    My hips are tight too - particularly on my left side. I find that gradually over time the Bikram has helped with this BUT I think you might need to go more then once a week to give your body time to help in this area.

    I would sign up for the 49 euro 30 day offer and go as many times as possible in the 30 days before making a decision about how many days would work for you.

    Bikram says you should go for 60 days straight for most benefits!!!!

    Sorry to dig up an old thread, but any recent reviews on this?
    I assume there are shower facilities? What are they like?
