Clinical Pilates Singapore is a form of exercise that strengthens core muscles and improves posture. In combination with physiotherapy interventions, it can help alleviate chronic pain by addressing underlying musculoskeletal imbalances and dysfunctions.

The exercises in clinical Pilates strengthen the deep core muscles – transversus abdominis, multifidus, and diaphragm – and also the superficial core muscles – rectus abdominis and obliques. This helps to support the spine and alleviate pressure on joints, thereby reducing pain in the back and neck.

Moreover, the controlled breathing technique in clinical pilates promotes relaxation, which can reduce stress and tension. This helps to decrease pain levels by activating the parasympathetic nervous system and promoting a sense of calm.

Clinical Pilates Singapore: Effective Rehabilitation Through Pilates

Regular exercise is known to increase energy levels, and clinical pilates is no exception. In addition, as the program progresses, participants will notice that they are able to perform their daily activities with greater ease and less discomfort.

Unlike traditional Pilates classes, which are typically conducted by instructors who do not have additional training in rehabilitation (such as physiotherapists), clinical Pilates is conducted by physiotherapists who can assess an individual’s injuries and physical demands to create a customized program. This ensures that the right movement patterns are learned, while avoiding any unnecessary aggravation of existing injury or condition. This approach to Pilates is what sets it apart from other exercise classes and helps individuals recover from their injuries quicker. As a result, it is increasingly being used as part of the rehabilitation and management of chronic pain conditions, including back pain, neck pain, joint pain, and sports injuries.
