STOTT PILATES Optimization of the Lumbo-Pelvic Region
This workshop developed by the Merrithew™ team consists of both lecture and practical application. The workshop explores the anatomy and biomechanics involved in a normal healthy functioning lumbo-pelvic region then applies these fundamentals in an effort to optimize function. The first part entitled Form & Function, covers the functional anatomy and therapeutic foundational concepts within the context of the lumbar spine, pelvis, hip and all associated musculature. The second part presents the Programming & Application of STOTT PILATES® exercises. This practical section relates the theory already learned to identify programming priorities and determine appropriate exercises designed to optimize the function of the lumbo-pelvic region.
