Clinical Pilates

Section Pages

Clinical Pilates rehabilitation works for many reasons. The great attention to detail and form is a perfect way for you to gain strength in the weaker or injured muscles and joints. Pilates is gentle on the joints, so there is little worry of over stressing an already stressed body. Pilates also develops the smaller muscle groups that work to support joints and bony structures. And because Pilates builds a bodily awareness to balance, chronically weak and imbalanced muscles become equally strong.

Pilates as rehabilitation is also great preventative medicine. Keep yourself strong today and avoid injuries tomorrow. This is a great metaphor for people suffering from arthritis, osteoporosis or fibromyalgia.

Pilates rehabilitation not only develops strength, but it increases flexibility in muscles and joints. This is a particularly important note for you if you are suffering from arthritis. You need to keep their joints “oiled” up. They do that by using them. Use it or lose it! Keeping a full or near full range of motion in the joints is immensely important to all people, but to arthritis sufferers in particular.
