Efficacy of Pilates Scoliosis
| In the case of scoliosis, the Pilates method provides 100% satisfactory results. It has been theorized that the lesions associated with scoliosis can cause, or occur as a result of imbalances in the body and preferred patterns of movement. A weak or poor alignment of the area may result in a tendency to overcompensate or overdevelop another area. The Pilates method works to rebalance the muscles. The symmetrical nature of the Pilates exercise technique makes an excellent rehabilitation for patients with imbalance as a result of scoliosis. |
| It does not correct the curve, but helps to rebalance the body through posture correction, which decreases and sometimes the aches and pains disappear from the disease. As for the scoliotic attitude, the result of practicing Pilates is even better because it is unstructured deformity in which there is a degree of flexibility, which allows the correction. The Pilates method focuses on maintaining balance in both cases working with specific Pilates exercises toning and stretching of the muscles surrounding the spine, focusing on both sides of the body rebalance. |
