Research has shown that Pilates has a staying power in the ability to release tension and pain. It is due to this ability that Pilates is popular as a regime in the rehabilitation for chronic pain. Many orthopedic doctors and physiotherapy clinics are recommending Pilates as the alternative holistic approach to providing patients with pain relief and helping them recover from injuries.

Pilates specially designed exercises and its high performing equipment target specific muscle groups including those found in the back, shoulder, neck, and knees. It works well in developing strength and flexibility to areas that are vulnerable to stress and pain.

Muscles tension is a sign that the muscles are short, weak, and can easily be damaged and become injured. It may be caused by the lack of exercise, or inappropriate movements or doing repetitive movements resulting in injuries over extended periods.

Why Pilates Core Strength?

Are you aware what Pilates core strength is? It is impossible to build awareness if you have no idea of the fundamentals of Pilates. The body mind connection can be achieved only when the body mind connection can be established.

In Pilates, the body is trained in a manner that the core muscles will get to work and provide support and stability to the back. Doing so improves posture and at the same time addresses the muscular imbalances of the body, a major cause of pain in the body.

Pilate's gentle and low impact exercises help stretch those tight muscles while strengthening them. It also develops the abdominal core muscles, which help to support the spine properly. The spine is the most important core piece since it provides strength and flexibility to the joints that the body needs in order to move in a wide range of functional positions.

Back Pain

Back pain appears when there is no movement in the spinal column for long periods of time. It can also be the result of de-generation, the normal wear and tear over time. For the former, the spine needs to move periodically to release tension and tightness. Pain stems from too much movement or ageing which can lead to uneven stresses on the joints and discs.

Pilates back pain relief teaches neutral alignment. These exercises strengthen the back muscles, make them flexible by making them articulate in isolation. It teaches small precise ways of moving the lower back muscles with precision. These movements aid in improving circulation in the tight lower back and improve range of motion.

Shoulder Pain

Shoulder pain can result from lifting the shoulders throughout the day, without realizing it. Shoulder tension and tightness results, together with knots. It can also lead to the inflammation of the shoulder joint and its musculature, if serious.

Pilates shoulder pain relief exercises are about releasing the tightness in the shoulder joints. It might be due to poor posture or imbalance in the muscles of the shoulder area. Pilates improves posture by gaining strength and flexibility needed to correctly align the shoulder joints and the body's posture and form.

Neck pain

Neck pain, in general, is the result of a combination of muscle strain and poor posture. It ranges from simple pain that is usually resolved over several hours or just a few days to chronic pain that is frequently recurring. Degenerated disks in the neck's cervical vertebrae, whiplash, and pinched nerves are the most common reasons for neck pain.

Pilates neck pain relief exercises help ease neck pain by improving muscle flexibility and strength as well as correct posture alignment. The workout focuses on awareness of good posture. It eliminates muscle tension and other unhealthy habits that the body has been used to doing but often times lead to strain in the neck muscles.

Knee pain

Most knee conditions are associated with misalignment and undue stresses placed in the knee joints. It can be caused by sudden twisting movement or strong side impact on the joint causing ligaments and tendons to tear. It can start as a pain or inflammation. Pilates knee pain relief exercises teaches development of the muscles around the knee joints. The activation of thigh muscles can also be achieved through the workout to make them stronger to better support the knee's weak structure and maintain the knee joints firmly in place.
