Reformer Pilates and the Pelvic Floor

Did you know that Pilates, especially Reformer and mat exercises, can be a pelvic floor-friendly workout?

Studies show that the intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) generated during Pilates is generally lower than that of walking or simple sit-to-stands, making it a suitable choice for those seeking low-impact exercise options.

Pilates offers numerous benefits, including dynamic balance, increased abdominal and upper body endurance, improved postural alignment, and improved pelvic floor strength.

If you’re experiencing pelvic floor symptoms, consider incorporating Pilates into your routine. Please always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new exercise program to make sure it’s appropriate for your individual needs.
