Get Back to Your Back in 2024
Pilates. Acupuncture. Accountability.
I am teaming up with one of my close friends and talented acupuncturist, Erin Meyers of Wild Blue Acupuncture to bring a 6-week program to help you heal lower back pain. This program combines pilates and acupuncture to help you build a strong core, open energetic pathways, loosen muscles, and activate your brain to not only heal, but also prevent chronic back pain.
This program includes:
12 Pilates Sessions
We will practice pilates twice/week during the 6 weeks at the Pilates Barn. This will include work on the Reformer as well as work on the mat and Theraband. These sessions will be designed to help integrate the acupuncture you will receive.
6 Acupuncture Sessions
You will receive weekly acupuncture sessions with Erin, specifically designed to help your brain connect and heal the tension, pain, and stress that we all tend to carry in our back.
Accountability & Community
Erin and I designed this program to be done with a friend (not required). We put an incredible amount of stress on our bodies and healing is best achieved when you're in a community of like-minded people. We hope you stick with it with your friends, old and new!
how it works
You may be asking why we are combining pilates with acupuncture. These two practices compliment each other incredibly well when it comes to healing from chronic pain. Acupuncture connects your brain to your muscles while pilates helps re-connect your muscles to your brain. When your brain and muscular system are communicating with each other, healing, strength, and stress relief are not far behind!

Erin suffered for years from chronic headaches, neck, and shoulder pain. "I felt like I had tried everything and I was tired of trying to decide every day if my pain was bad enough to take painkillers, or whether I could just tough it out. I can’t remember who suggested acupuncture to me, but luckily there was an acupuncturist just down the street from my lab at the Institute for Behavioral Genetics."
