Yes, Pilates is wonderful for back issues! Pilates is able to help in back pain treatment mainly in two ways. The first is by strengthening your muscles and making them more flexible, while the second is through improving your posture. Pilates enables your joints and muscles to become stronger and more flexible. By doing so, you will be able to make them tough enough to withstand the strain and other stresses that happen as you are doing your regular activities. When your muscles are stronger, they can withstand injury better. When the muscles are more flexible, you have less risk of straining them when you contort your body into awkward positions. In this regard, Pilates would really help you in your back pain treatment.
Pilates can definitely be beneficial for pregnant women, especially private sessions! Your body is going through so many changes and many adjustments will have to be made that only a private session can allow for. Within our Instructor Directory you will find instructors that are specially qualified to work with pregnant women under training and/or specialized areas of expertise. Please note to ensure a safe pregnancy, receiving doctor’s approval is highly recommended and may be requested by your instructor, particularly if Pilates is something new for you.

Pilates is famous for creating long, lean, fit bodies. There are many ways that doing Pilates supports weight loss and a trimmer appearance:
- Exercise burns calories. How many calories you burn depends on your body type and your level of exertion.
- Creating lean muscle mass, as Pilates does, is one of the best ways to increase your calorie-burning potential.
- Pilates tones and shapes the body.
- One of the best ways to look and feel thinner is to have beautiful posture. Pilates creates a leaner look by emphasizing both length and good alignment.
- Pilates promotes deep and efficient respiration, which is essential for calorie burning and tissue regeneration.
- Engaging in an exercise program, like Pilates, promotes self-esteem and heightened lifestyle consciousness. Both are associated with weight loss.
- Pilates is an enlivening workout that can help sustain energy levels throughout your day. However, it is not usually done as aerobic exercise. Therefore, some people enjoy combining Pilates with aerobic/cardio exercise in order to maximize their weight loss.
