PRE- AND POST-NATAL REFORMER PILATES

During pregnancy the forces on the body change and adapt to the growing changes taking place in the body. Discomfort is often expected in this change, and many women “put up” with the aches and pains that they feel. Unfortunately this can mean that increasing pain does not go unchecked and can result in the body compensating for the shift in balance, and ultimately this can cause conflict in the body, and potentially longer term pain.

Prenatal Pilates on the reformer increases postural awareness while strengthening the periphery, enabling mothers to be strong throughout pregnancy and supporting the body through labour and into the early days of mothering. Each exercise session on the reformer redefines what ideal alignment looks and feels like for each participant. Once that is established, the reformer exercises will effectively strengthen and support the body through all phases of the pregnancy.

Hormonal changes during pregnancy create an increase in ligament laxity throughout the body and most significantly in the low back and sacral area. On the reformer, the gliding carriage allows movement through a full but controlled range of motion while keeping the arms and legs grounded for a safe and effective workout. As pregnancy progresses, it becomes more challenging for mums to find comfortable positions. The variety of exercise options available on the reformer allows pregnant women to continue to maintain and develop their strength throughout pregnancy.
