PILATES FOR BACK PAIN

According to the World Health Organisation, 80% of adults experience back pain at some point in their lives. 1 in 5 endure chronic pain. It is the #1 cause of work absence and is detrimental to both physical and mental health.

Pilates is a system of movement designed to create trunk stability, improve spinal alignment, and correct faulty movement patterns. By redirecting the body back to optimal movement, Pilates can help you take control of your body and ultimately become pain free.

PILATES FOR GREAT POSTURE

With the average person now spending nine hours of their day sat down, poor posture has become a modern-day epidemic. Spines are slumped, shoulders are hunched, hips are tight, and gluteal muscles are weak. This puts the body’s structure under enormous strain.

Pilates enhances spinal and joint flexibility, whilst strengthening the shoulder, back, and abdominal musculature. This improves habitual posture and counteracts the damaging effects of a sedentary working lifestyle.

PILATES FOR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE

Pilates is incredible for restoring balance to the body and developing efficiency in movement. When the body is aligned well, it can perform better. Jump higher, run faster, squat deeper, lift heavier…Pilates is a natural cross-training resource that will optimise your fitness performance.
