Pilates Rehabilitation

Pilates is a method of exercise that focuses on whole body movements coordinated with the breath. Instead of isolating muscle groups, the technique integrates the arms and legs with the core or “trunk” of the body. All movements are precise and controlled, focusing on improving strength, flexibility, and the mind-body connection.

The rehabilitation exercises are designed to:

• Stabilize the spine
• Eliminate excessive muscle effort
• Elongate spine
• Improve posture, coordination, and balance

In addition, Pilates will:

• Build longer/leaner muscles
• Help prevent injury
• Balance strength and flexibility
• Offer no-impact movements
• Improve performance in sports

Stillpoint Studios, adjacent to Spring Hill Physical Therapy & Acupuncture, is the original rehab Pilates center in Nevada County. In addition to private one-on-one sessions, Stillpoint Studios offers daily mat and equipment classes from beginner to advanced levels.
