Therapeutic Pilates for Lower Back
At some point in our lives, we may experience lower back pain - that's the bad news. The good news? LBP can be significantly reduced or completely relieved with Pilates. The combination of deep abdominal strengthening, postural awareness and release, as well as stretching exercises taught in Pilates is extremely effective in the prevention and treatment of LBP.
Pilates Exercises for Lower Back Pain
The Neutral Spine position that is taught in Joseph Pilates Philosophy is used as the most functionally ideal or "perfect" posture for our bodies. The curves in our spine are used to create stability and mobility for taking on the weight and pressure of our bodies in our everyday life. The strong focus on the core (deep abdominal) strength creates stronger support muscles for the spine. By implementing these techniques into your everyday life, you begin to fix the problem at the cause, rather than only treat the symptoms. In Pilates, everything begins from the core.
Did you know that there is a strong correlation between LBP and tight hamstrings and hip flexors? Pilates instructors are very well versed in tight hip flexors, so they know how they can affect LBP! Stretching these muscles helps to immediately relieve tension in the back and continued stretching over time will help improve the posture in the lower back.
As always, it is recommended to consult your doctor or specialist before beginning a new exercise program if you do suffer from LBP. Depending on the cause, some exercises may not be advisory.
