Pilates
Pilates may seem like a new way to engage in physical activity, but did you know it was actually created in the early 20th century? Joseph Pilates created this form of exercise during World War I as a way to help rehabilitate wounded soldiers. Since then, Pilates has been used for a vast arrangement of exercise, treatment, and strength training.

How does Pilates fit with Physiotherapy?
Pilates for rehabilitation purposes has been a growing trend in the physiotherapy field for quite some time now. This advanced form of exercise not only helps in the recovery of an injured body part, but it also goes beyond that – it helps with improving strength and movement throughout the entire body.
Pilates can be used in areas other than injury rehabilitation, as well. It has also been known to be used as a stress management technique, as well as a way to strengthen the joints and muscles. It helps with improving muscle performance, motor control, and reinforcing postural alignment. By focusing on the core, Pilates is able to amplify your center of balance and promote an even musculature throughout the body.
This treatment is effective for a large number of neurological and orthopedic issues, which is the main reason why Rhema-Gold Physiotherapy incorporates it into our treatment plans. Some of the most common conditions treated with Pilates include:
- Arthritis
- Balance issues
- Multiple sclerosis
- Spinal cord injuries
- Brain injuries
- Stroke
At Rhema-Gold Physiotherapy, our aim is to help you reach your full potential of physical function, no matter what your condition may be.
