Pilates & Spine Health 🫶

Movement is vital for spine health and rehabilitation.
One of the most important things that people with long-lasting or recurring back pain can do is stay as physically active as possible.

When looking for an exercise strategy to aid in the recovery from orthopedic surgery, a musculoskeletal injury, or a neurological condition, Pilates can be a really helpful movement practice.

It is however, really important to be guided in a Pilates programme structured to the individual and the type of spinal condition the client has.
Not all Pilates exercises are appropriate to all spine conditions. Finding the right practitioner for your specific needs is key.

By focusing on breath control, concentration, and body awareness, Pilates encourages individuals to tune into their bodies, listen to their limitations, and progress at their own pace, fostering a sense of empowerment and confidence in their ability to recover.

Pilates Apparatus

Studio apparatus is a great option for people who want a tailored workout or perhaps to take their Pilates matwork skills to another level.

The apparatus consists of human-powered spring-loaded resistance equipment designed to support, assist, and challenge the body's natural mechanics.

It is a great option for low-impact recovery, injury rehabilitation and athletic performance.

Each piece of apparatus provides so many options to cater for everybody.
The repertoire is endless.

I teach apparatus on a 1:1 basis, providing a bespoke service, specific to clients individual needs and requirements.

Foot Splay 👣

The human foot is an intricate structure, with 26 bones and 33 joints that work together to provide balance, propulsion, and feedback from the ground.

Good foot function is part of a whole body movement system.

Many people become disconnected from their feet, often due to lengthy time periods in ill fitting or excessively supported shoes.

Having good foot splay is the natural widening and spreading of the forefoot and toes when taking a step.
This splay creates a wide base for balance, absorbs high impact forces, and powers the push off during walking and running.

Better sensory input develops better motor output and to get better function from our feet we have to use them and introduce them to different experiences, which develops new pathways to the brain.

Spending time out of shoes, splaying the toes and generally getting those feet moving is key.

In our standing Pilates we work on various exercises to wake up the feet and build on strength and mobility.

Consistency Beats Complexity.

Our bodies take time to adjust to a new stimulus, to change, grow and build strength.
Having patience is key.

Pilates is about learning how far you can move your body whilst maintaining control. We value precision over repetition.

Practicing each exercise repeatedly, until the movement becomes second nature, a habit, an automatic response.

Progress is a life long journey and looks different for everyone.
When we keep programming simple, it becomes easier to Implement, progress and recognise improvements.

With consistency and gradual progression we can significantly improve physically, mentally and functionally.

Movement 🫶

Movement is a gift.
It is one of our body’s most basic functions and one of the most powerful ways to improve how we feel and move.

When we move better, we feel better and everyday life becomes easier. The simple things, done consistently, really work.

My sessions focus on mastering the basics before progressing towards your potential. You’ll be supported and coached every step of the way, so you feel capable, confident and strong.

After a lovely break, it’s time to get back to it!
Really looking forward to moving with you all 🫶
