How Pilates Can Help Your Clients
- The Pilates repertoire contains a wider range of exercises and progressions to use for your rehabilitation programs
- Pilates teaches clients correct abdominal bracing which is essential for spinal health
- Learn how to get your clients to activate their Transversus Abdominus in all forms of exercise
- Pilates can be used as a form of corrective exercise to strengthen the weak points of a particular exercise. For example, if a client tends to tip forward or round their back during a squatting movement, Pilates can help target the lumbar spine extensors and hamstrings in an isolated and safe manner that will allow those muscles to increase in strength
