Pilates incorporates exercise principles designed to restore the natural curves of the spine improving alignment and posture, and re-balancing the muscles around the joints. Pilates increases core strength (abs, low back and buttocks), which is the powerhouse of our body. Core strength is key to reducing pain, injury prevention and enhancing athletic performance.
Pilates is also one of the best ways to treat those with:
- Weak abdominal muscles
- Low back pain
- Hip pain
- Knee pain
- Post-operative conditions
- Pre/postnatal women
