Pilates
Modern Pilates is designed to offer smooth flowing movements from a
stable base. Each movement from a strong centre. The aim
is to realign muscles and open up spaces between each vertebra.
Back stability is fundamental to any Pilates programme. Our
core muscles affect the support of the spine, posture and the way we
move. Correcting stability and increasing body awareness can benefit
any individual from a sports person to an elderly person. For
the older person increasing balance can help confidence in movement
and general activities.
Some of the benefits may include:-
-
Greater muscle strength and endurance.
-
Mobility and flexibility
-
Help aid relaxation and reduce stress levels, which improve sleep
and lifestyle
-
With the strengthening process this can lead to fewer injuries and
an improvement in back pain.
