What if I have an injury or diagnosis where movement can be difficult, is Pilates for me?

We always suggest consulting your physician before you start any exercise program.

Chronic pain can be so challenging and frustrating. And we're sorry that you are experiencing any discomfort.

The good news is that Pilates is for everyone. Movement can be medicine. Low-impact movement like Pilates doesn’t put extra stress on your system. It lubricates joints, reduces inflammation, and releases tight muscles. Pilates opens up our breath pathways, and stimulates lymphatic fluid. It can even decrease our feelings of pain. The hormones we produce when doing Pilates workouts actually help to reduce pain.

We encourage you to listen to your body and modify whenever needed too. You can find gentle stretching workouts and exercise modifications in the Lindywell Move library too.
