Why does pilates help relieve back pain?
Pilates is an exercise that focuses on strengthening the core muscles in the abdomen, back and pelvis. These muscles support the normal development and functioning of the spine and improve posture, reducing back pain. When your core muscles are weak, it can put additional pressure on your back, causing pain and discomfort.
In a study published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine, pilates include controlled movements, emphasizing accuracy, and are designed to suit all ages and fitness levels.
