Description
Did you know that bone health attention is necessary throughout the life span and why Pilates can help? Osteopenia and osteoporosis are more commonly considered conditions of menopause, yet adolescence, athleticism, and pre-natal and post-natal times are also times of life where low bone density and fractures can confuse and derail our clients.
OBJECTIVES
At the end of this course, participants will:
Learn about how Pilates helps bone health in varying ways throughout the lifespan and its activity stages.
Become knowledgeable about what exercises to include and which to avoid to sidestep the “one size fits all” concept of low bone density activity in Pilates.
Learn to utilize Mat, Reformer and Trapeze Table equipment in addressing this condition.
