Will Pilates Help My Back Pain?

If you have pain, TTBF will require written approval from your medical professional prior to beginning your program. We are proud to have many referrals in the medical community to refer you to if necessary. A Pilates workout is gentle and controlled with no sudden jarring actions. Pilates focus on abdominal strength, flexibility, and posture lending itself well to those with back pain. However, these principles can be difficult to learn in a group setting, especially for those who may require specific modifications to avoid re-injury or aggravation of symptoms. We recommend that all clients with a history of back pain, especially if it is ongoing, take a private session before participating in the mat class. This allows us to evaluate your abilities and make recommendations to improve the safety of each exercise. Back pain can be a mystery. Sometimes it is a lack of strength and flexibility. Other instance may require medical attention. The probability that most of us over 30 have some loss of disc integrity is high. We are happy to assist you in finding the right formula.
