🧘‍♀️ How Pilates Can Help Relieve Back Pain — Naturally

If you struggle with nagging lower back pain, stiffness when you wake up, or tightness after sitting too long, you’re not alone. Back pain is one of the most common issues among women, especially during perimenopause, post-pregnancy, or from years of poor posture.

The good news? Pilates is one of the most effective ways to ease back pain and keep it from coming back.

💡 Why Pilates Works for Back Pain

Unlike traditional workouts, Pilates focuses on deep core muscles, posture, and functional movement — exactly what your spine needs to feel supported.

At True Fitness with Carrie, I use targeted Pilates exercises to help women in Thame:

• Strengthen their core and glutes (key stabilisers for the spine)

• Improve posture and reduce muscular imbalances

• Stretch tight areas like the lower back, hips, and hamstrings

• Reconnect breath and movement to calm tension

The result? Less pain, more strength, and better mobility in everyday life.

👩‍⚕️ Safe for All Ages & Stages

Whether you're:

• Recovering from a back injury

• Struggling postpartum

• Managing the effects of ageing or hormonal shifts

…I’ll guide you through movements that are gentle, safe, and effective. With my qualifications in Pre & Postnatal, Pilates Reformer, and MenoFit, I tailor every session to your body’s needs.

📍 Where to Start in Thame

You can experience back-friendly Pilates with me:

• In 1:1 sessions at Invictus Fitness or in my home studio

• Through Pilates Reformer sessions for added support and resistance

• In group Pilates classes that focus on posture, mobility, and core strength

Even a single session can offer noticeable relief — and over time, the change is transformational.
