Can Pilates help with lower back pain?
Yes! Not only can Pilates ease lower back pain in a very short period of time but, often, the weaknesses that cause or result from it can be corrected. Pilates is designed to give greater stability to the spine by strengthening the muscles in the lower back and pelvis. Improving alignment and returning function to these areas alleviates pressure on the lumbar discs, which has been scientifically demonstrated to assuage back pain.
