Is Pilates good for Osteoporosis?
Clients suffering from loss of bone density, mild or extreme, can benefit greatly from a very specifically tailored Pilates program. Private instruction is a must due to the fact that many of the exercises in Pilates are not ideal and can even be detrimental to clients with osteoporosis. Others are highly beneficial and effective. We have had the good fortune of playing a role in assisting several clients with a reversal of osteoporosis through diet, medication (sometimes) and a safe, weight-bearing exercise program.
