Stretch Through the Pandemic
Stretching can reduce the amount of pain perceived by the brain, lengthen short muscles, increase range of motion at a joint, and reduce your chances of injury. If you have a good stretching routine, you are less likely to suffer from pain caused by muscle imbalances.

About Hannah
Coming from an exercise rehabilitation background and now studying a doctorate in physiotherapy, my studies have always been related to movement and exercise. I enjoyed attending Pilates classes for a number of years before I worked in a lovely clinic where the physiotherapists used Pilates as part of their treatment for example for back pain so was even more keen to do my training. I completed my diploma in mat Pilates last year and have taught 1:1, small groups and now online.
