STAFF SPOTLIGHT JONATHAN HEBERT, LCMT
Pilates And Your Immune System Pilates can improve your sports performance, help prevent injuries, and boost your immune system. Our immune system flows through our lymphatic system. Unlike our circulatory system, lymph depends on our movement and the contraction of our muscles to circulate. Pilates assists with circulating the lymph that collects in our hands, feet, and other places where our extremities connect to our core. Many exercises “pump” and squeeze these areas to get collected lymph moving. This is why the full-body movement required for Pilates exercise is so helpful! Pilates also focuses on stress-relief and calming your mind, through breathing techniques and specific movements. This causes the sympathetic nervous system to slow down, which in turn reduces stress and encourages immunity. Fitting exercise into your everyday schedule also promotes better sleep, which is necessary for healthy immune systems. Ready to Get Started? Pilates is an excellent source of fitness if you’re looking to improve your balance, blood flow, circulation, or alleviate back pain. This form of exercise can be customized specifically to a person’s needs and can cater to their current fitness and ability levels. If you think it might be a good fit for you, contact Blue Sky PT today to learn more about the health benefits Pilates can offer you! We’d be thrilled to get you started with the right workout regimen, so you can start achieving your health goals as soon as possible.
