I am 78 years old and started doing Pilates a year ago because of lower back pain due to an earlier diagnosed degenerative lumbar spine condition. Four months of physical therapy sessions and continued follow-through for six months offered limited relief but since working with Amy, my back pain has all but disappeared - some days I wonder if I'm really 78! My posture is certainly better and I seem to breathe more deeply and move more easily than I did before Pilates.
Amy has worked with me on the exercises recommended by my physical therapist but in addition she has also created a personal home program which enables me to keep the Pilates going between sessions. When new exercises are introduced, the home program is updated. This is really helpful because it keeps the movements fresh and interesting. I would recommend Pilates to anyone - regardless of age!
