I have a member who had to stop doing Pilates due to acid reflex. Is there something I can suggest other than using a Bosu and not laying completely flat??

Hello Debbie,
Out of my scope of practice…I would recommend them to consult their physician.

Sincerely,
Michael

If it makes then sick, don’t do it.

Eliminate the cause of discomfort.

Hi Debbie,

I will often use the BOSU as a means of providing back support and a bit of leverage and incline for my clients. They enjoy using it!

First off, have her check with her doctor. Acid reflux can be serious. And then avoid any trunk flexion.

I would have her lie prone on the floor and perform trunk extension

Take care, Danny

Hanging Knee raises put less pressure on the diaphragm. I get some reflux from time to time and they are a good substitute FOR ME.
