Who needs to do Pilates?

Pilates based exercises are strongly recommended for the following conditions:

• Lower back pain and problems (including disc injuries) The presence of a pain sensation causes the core muscles to “switch off” and stop working. When the pain finally settles, these muscles often don't begin to automatically work again. Pilates helps to “wake” these muscles up and works to restore their strength.
• Hip and knee problems The hip, knee, ankle and lower back are closely linked from an anatomical and functional perspective. If there are alignment problems in one area, they can create problems in another related area. Sometimes this can be due to “instability' through the pelvis or core. Improving core stability can help to correct alignment problems.
• Pregnancy & Post Pregnancy During pregnancy, the female body undergoes massive changes to accommodate the growing baby. One of these changes includes posture of the lower back. It frequently becomes more arched due to the increasing load in front. Excercises while pregnant can improve posture, postural awareness and in some cases reduce separation of the abdominal muscles.
• Shoulder problems Most shoulder problems have a component of instability of the shoulder blade. The shoulder blade forms the “stumps” of the entire arm, so if the base is not stable, there will likely be problems on whatever stands upon it. Our exercises can be tailored to aim and correct shoulder blade instability

This strengthening program was developed by Joseph Pilates last century. The approach concentrates particularly on the “core” muscles that are responsible for maintaining correct posture and supporting the spine. When these muscles are strong and function properly, they relieve other muscles of excess fatigue and tension. These muscles can include the gluteals, hamstrings and groin.
