Rehabilitation Through Pilates In Santa Clarita

Exercise has long been associated with health and fitness and Santa Clarita residents have definitely discovered those benefits.

There is a business associated with fitness on every corner it seems, from gyms and fitness clubs to workout gear retail stores. With so many options, it’s difficult to choose a fitness program that is perfect for you. That’s why many people are trying out pilates, one of the fastest growing exercises of our time. People are flocking towards pilates for the stabilization focused workouts, but are staying for pilates’ injury rehabilitation and prevention abilities.

Injuries occur when we put pressure on muscles that aren’t supposed to maintain pressure. This happens when we move inefficiently and incorrectly. Movements such as slouching, hovering over a computer screen, or looking down at your phone contradict the way our bodies are meant to move.

When we do that, the muscles that are meant to bear the pressure — primary muscles — are pushed to the side and the ones that are only meant to help — secondary muscles — are forced to take all of the weight. This weakens the primary muscles and strengthens the secondary muscles and increases the chances of injury.

Pilates focuses on correcting behaviors that lead to injury. Stability, core strength, and maintaining proper posture are pilates staples that help to do just that. By stressing these three aspects of fitness, pilates helps patrons build the muscles that are meant to carry the weight of everyday life and retrain patrons to use secondary muscles for stabilization and support, reducing the risk of injury.

For those who already injured, pilates is a great way to target muscles surrounding the afflicted one. By building those, you are creating extra support for the injured muscle so that it doesn’t have to work so hard and can heal better.

Many people are now using pilates as a way of rehabilitation after learning the benefits it can have, however they do so with caution. According to the president of Northstar Pilates in Buffalo, NY, Kris Bosch, pilates is a great way to promote rehabilitation if done correctly. If not, it can actually make the injury even worse. So if you’re looking for a pilates instructor who can help you heal from an injury, look for one who has had experience in physical therapy so that they can properly couple physical therapy and pilates together.

The perfect place to do this is at Santa Clarita’s own Movement of Pilates! Movement of Pilates is dedicated to promoting strength and fitness through pilates, but also on providing a means of physical therapy to its clients.

Classes such as Therapeutic Stretch Pilates will help to heal injuries while ScolioPilates can help alleviate the pain of scoliosis and can even help straighten out your spine! Visit Movement of Pilates for a fun way to stay fit and keep yourself injury free.
