Pilates
Pilates, a combination of coordinated breathing and strength training, was developed to stretch, strengthen, and balance the body. Once thought to be just for dancers, Pilates has become invaluable not only as a great workout, but also plays a fundamental role in professional sports training and physical rehabilitation.
Pilates has many benefits for men and women of all ages:
- strengthens and tones your entire body
- improves posture
- increases flexibility
- reduces back and neck pain
- fights headaches and migraines
- improves body awareness, which will help reduce injury in other activities
- gentle on the joints, which is ideal for PT patients
