Discover How Pilates Can Help You Overcome Hip Pain and Impingement

In this in-depth webinar, movement expert Dr. Brent Anderson, Polestar Pilates founder, shares how to assess hip tightness and dysfunction, determine appropriate treatment goals based on your condition and needs, and craft a tailored Pilates program to rehabilitate your hips through mobility, control, alignment, and gradual progression techniques.

You'll discover:

• Precise techniques for progression to build strength and tolerance around your hips over time.

• Benefits of a customized Pilates program for overcoming hip impingement and snapping hip to restore flexibility, function and get back to the activities you love.

With a skilled Pilates teacher's guidance, you can craft a customized program based on your needs to rehabilitate your hips, relieve pain, and gain confidence in your body. Learn how Pilates can get your hips back on track so you can move freely without discomfort or limits. Rediscover your vitality and the simple joys of movement through Pilates.
