A man by the name of Joseph Pilates is the original founder of this exercise approach. He was a very sick child and developed exercises to improve his immune function and it worked! Later in life he ended up in a British internment camp during WW1 and was able to help improve not only his own morale but the morale of both prisoners and guards. Pilates is valued as a form of exercise that helps with immune function and depression. In the therapy community it is understood and agreed that without the proper breath work no degree of therapy can really work long term. Pilates is known for its breath work and can help the client facilitate breath specific to the task and learn to do it mindfully, instead of with the anxiety of having to remember it. This all ties into the empowerment that takes over the mind and body and facilitates an overall well-being feeling and better immune function. Calming the central nervous system down and giving it clear concise signals is key.
