How Does Pilates Boost Overall Wellness?

How Does Pilates Boost Overall Wellness?

We all move in and out of wellness both mentally and physically on a daily, monthly and yearly basis depending on big life changes, major stressors, physical and environmental changes, injuries and ageing.

A mind-body practice like Pilates can boost overall wellness by maximising our efficiency of movement, which in turn, can minimise injury and pain so we can do more of the things we love.

Why is Pilates an effective tool for rehabilitation and overall wellness?

Pilates is an effective tool for rehabilitation and overall wellness because it focuses on the whole body.

Pilates involves the whole body, not just one or two joints. It emphasises the importance of balancing the body’s mobility with control.  

What are the benefits of mindful movement practices like Pilates?

Engaging in mindful movement is key to forming new neuromuscular patterning and reinforcing corrective neuromuscular patterning.

Our goal as Pilates instructors is to train people to be mindful in their movement— alignment, recruitment and movement—during all daily tasks and train them to move better. That way, when they’re tasked with challenging movements or activities, such as driving, gardening, etc., their body is more resilient and they know how to move better so they can do more of the things they love with less chance of injury.
