Applied Rehabilitation Pilates
Pilates is now a well known form of exercise and rehabilitation and is common in many gyms and healthclubs. However, gym and healthclub classes commonly teach traditional Pilates excercises which are very demanding on the average body. These exercises can be unsafe for some individuals with clinical Low Back Pain (LBP)as they use long lever techniques which place large pressure onto already compromised spinal joints.
Rehabilitation Pilates focuses on retraining the deep abdominal, pelvic floor and low back muscles which are vital in stabilising the spine, and helping recovery from Low Back Pain.
Indications for Rehabilitation Pilates include:
- recovery from spinal surgery
- low back pain during or after pregnancy
- low back pain associated with slipped disc or sciatic pain
- long standing joint pain
Improved core stability helps to improve posture and helps reduce the reoccurance of back problems. Applied Rehabilitation Pilates can be incorporated with your osteopathic appointment with Noel.
