With Pilates for Rehabilitation, Second Edition, you will learn how to apply the Pilates method to address dysfunction and help your clients achieve optimal performance. Renowned instructor and physical therapist Samantha Wood provides detailed descriptions of the most effective exercises for rehabilitating and healing injuries, improving functional strength, promoting efficient movement, and managing chronic pain.
