Will Pilates Help Me with My Back Pain and Injuries?

The reason the answer is an absolute yes is because not only will you learn Pilates but most importantly you will learn how and why your body works as it does. Pilates is only the vehicle to the journey of discovering how and why your body feels and performs the way it does. Every injury outside of a congenital effect or impact injury is caused by a misalignment and overcompensation/imbalance over time. While you will benefit from being in a pilates class no matter what, if you have chronic and consistent pain or injury we highly recommend you to book a private session with Kelsey to have a movement assessment/ postural evaluation done to identify the root cause of your injury. Once that is established with a focused plan and goals in mind you will know what specific movement patterns to be aware of and how to break them while building new ones to feel better for the rest of your life. Pilates is the perfect exercise for all of your life, it is the complete balance between strength, mobility and stability. The most important gift Pilates can offer you is to understand how your body moves and why in your everyday tasks and movements and learn how to move smarter by connecting to the proper alignment and activation of mobilizers and stabilizers to create pain free movement.
