OF FAYETTEVILLE
Stay fi t and prepare for child birth using Pilates. Ok, so you’ve got a baby in your belly—now what? Are you ready to work out for two?
The Pilates method of gentle strengthening exercises, on either a mat or the Pilates equipment, will tone you up but also address things like poor posture, back or leg pain, and the muscular aches and pains associated with pregnancy.
Benefi ts of Prenatal Pilates:
• Promotes good posture and spinal alignment, easing the strain and tensions involved with a changing body during pregnancy.
• Increases deep abdominal strength providing support for the weight of the baby and taking pressure off the spine.
• Increases pelvic fl oor strength and greater awareness of the muscles used during childbirth.
• Improves muscle endurance especially in the “core” region including the abdomen, back, pelvis, and shoulder.
• Promotes relaxation through the use of fl owing movements and focus on breath.
