From Back Woes to Reformer Bliss: How Pilates Helped Ruth Manage Back Pain in Stourbridge
Meet Ruth, a client at Stourbridge Pilates Rooms who damaged the discs in her back at the age of 14. Physio initially provided relief but it wasn't a permanent solution. Fast forward fifteen years and she found herself undergoing surgery. It was after this that her physio recommended she try Pilates — and it changed everything.
With its focus on core strength and flexibility Pilates was the perfect means of rehabilitation and long-term back support. She began with mat but then was intrigued by the equipment. The reformer became Ruth’s go-to tool; helping her stretch, strengthen and restore her back. The springs and straps provided the perfect balance of resistance and support.
