A pilatesinspired workout that's suitable for people with chronic back pain.

More research is needed, but there is some evidence to suggest that pilates can be helpful for people who have lower back pain.

This 29minute class focuses on improving the strength and flexibility of muscles that support the back.

Regular pilates practice can help with posture, muscle tone, balance and joint mobility. It can also relieve stress and tension.
