Is Pilates Good for Back Pain?

Yes — when it’s done correctly and supervised by a physiotherapist.

Reformer Pilates is particularly effective for back pain because it:

  • Strengthens deep core and spinal stabilising muscles

  • Improves posture and movement control

  • Reduces muscle tension and joint overload

  • Builds confidence in movement

  • Helps prevent recurring or chronic back pain

Our physiotherapists tailor each Pilates program based on your pain, movement patterns, and goals.

Who Is Pilates for Back Pain Suitable For?

You may benefit from Pilates for back pain if you experience:

  • Lower back pain or stiffness

  • Recurrent or chronic back pain

  • Disc-related pain or sciatica

  • Back pain with sitting, lifting, or exercise

  • Post-pregnancy or postnatal back pain

Pilates is often used alongside back pain physiotherapy for best results.

How Our Pilates for Back Pain Is Different

Unlike gym or studio Pilates, our sessions are:

  • Led and supervised by qualified physiotherapists

  • Individualised to your injury or pain

  • Progressed safely based on your recovery

  • Integrated with your physiotherapy treatment

We assess your movement first, then prescribe exercises that support your spine — not aggravate it.

Reformer Pilates and Physiotherapy: A Combined Approach

Many of our patients see the best outcomes when Pilates is combined with:

  • Hands-on physiotherapy

  • Manual therapy

  • Dry needling or trigger point therapy

  • Education on posture and lifting

This approach addresses both pain relief and long-term prevention.

Pilates for Back Pain After Pregnancy

Back pain after pregnancy is extremely common due to:

  • Core and pelvic floor changes

  • Increased lifting and carrying

  • Reduced recovery time

Our physiotherapists have extensive experience guiding mothers through safe Pilates-based back pain rehabilitation, ensuring exercises are appropriate for postnatal bodies.
