In post rehabilitation pilates, the condition itself dictates certain limitations that the Pilates instructor will know to respect. Pain is NO gain in pilates and this is especially true in a post rehab situation. With every condition, there is a different goal and protocol, yet in every situation, the post rehab techniques are designed to balance and strengthen the entire body for a highly functional and fit result.
For anyone beginning a pilates practice, movement and postural assessments offer valuable information to design an appropriate pilates program that will correct postural deviances and balance the body. It is especially important to prescribe a post-rehab program that will counteract overcompensation for an injury, as well as regain function, fitness, and overall well being.
