Sinopsis:
Studies suggest that proactive strengthening and flexibility-recovery exercises can speed recovery after spine surgery. Whether they are preparing for or recovering from spinal surgery, recuperating from a back injury or just dealing with a fragile back, this book offers readers a regimen that will help manage pain and regain strength and mobility. The exercises in this book modify Pilates exercises to accommodate partially immobilised spines, making this routine safe and effective for readers with fragile backs. These exercises are designed not to compromise a spinal fusion. Instead they will do what Pilates exercises do best - stretch, strengthen and tone the trunk with precise positioning and movement, rather than repetition.
Acerca del autor: Andra Fischgrund Stanton, LICSW, an independent, licensed psychiatric social worker, has been practicing individual and marital psychotherapy for twenty-five years. Over the years she has been especially sensitive to clients with chronic illness as she herself has been coping with scoliosis and back pain since the age of 11. Certified through the Power Pilates Method in New York City, Ruth Hiatt-Coblentz has earned advanced certification in Pilates mat, Reformer, Cadillac and Wunda Chair instruction. In her private studio, Think Pilates in Worcester, MA, she finds particular satisfaction helping those with fragile spines, having had three spinal surgeries of her own.
