Should I do Pilates if I have an injury?
It depends on the injury.
When you get injured the muscles that are affected should
be rested whilst they are healing. However, lengthy injuries
can weaken the muscles considerably. Pilates can help by 'awakening'
muscles that should be working and learn to switch off over-active
muscles which have had to work in place of those that are
weaker.
If you are injured or going through rehabilitation you should
always consult your doctor or specialist before starting any
new exercise programme. As a general rule we will only take
on clients if they have been given permission by their doctor
or specialist.
