More about Pilates and the Pelvic Floor:

It is well known that Pilates focuses on retraining, re-strengthening and reconditioning your core muscles.

The core is a specific group of muscles which provide support to your abdomen, back, pelvic girdle and pelvic organs. The diaphragm forms the top of your core cylinder and the pelvic floor muscles form the bottom. The sides and the front of your core are made up of the deep abdominal muscle (transverses abdominus), and the back by a spinal stabiliser called multifidus (see Fig 3).

The pelvic floor muscles are being increasingly acknowledged as a key stabiliser for the back and pelvic girdle as well as its more traditional roles of continence, pelvic organ support, childbirth and sexual function. Evidence suggests that poor function and motor control of the pelvic floor can be a significant contributing factor in ongoing musculoskeletal, gynaecological, urological and colorectal dysfunction. Observational trials have further found a strong link between low back and pelvic pain and associated pelvic floor dysfunction such as incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse.

The Physio for Women Pilates classes are a fusion of traditional Pilates and specialist Women’s health physiotherapy exercises and movement sequences for all your Women’s Health needs. There is an additional  focus and emphasis on rehabilitating the pelvic floor muscles in their entirety and with the surrounding connecting pelvic musculature. These classes are designed by Women for Women to nurture and support you throughout your life’s journey.

“10 sessions you’ll feel a difference, 20 sessions you will see a difference, 30 sessions and you will have a whole new body” Joseph Pilates
