Movement for Menopause: Pilates Principles

The core competencies of a healthcare professional call for the integration of systemic disorders, conditions, and treatments into client care, and our assessments offer the ideal opportunity to screen for seemingly unrelated health conditions.

As nurses, it is entirely possible that we are the first professional that a woman will disclose potential menopausal symptoms. Our therapeutic interventions can legitimately incorporate appropriate exercises and pain and stress management techniques that are integral to a holistic approach into client care.

The course video tutorials and 160-page illustrated e-textbook provide healthcare professionals with a comprehensive understanding of how the core functions and how stabilization helps promote health and proper movement patterns through the development of balanced muscles, joint alignment, and core control. It discusses menopause in detail, its symptoms, the long-term health consequences, and how Pilates can help alleviate them.
