  • Join me for 15 minute gentle pilates routine to ease the symptons of Fibromyalgia and other forms of chronic pain. These pilates exercises are to help you mobilise the body, build strength slowly and gently and to ease the pain that comes with a chronic condition. Beacuse chronic pain can be different every day and vary from person to person I would encourage you to listen to your body, do what you can and if you feel you can't do it all, try and stay with the breathing for the duration of the vidoeo as this will really help release the tension that comes form living with pain. If you found this helpful please try and do it regulalry as exercise helps both the mind and body, and if you'd like to see some other vidoes that can work for you do have a look at these also:

    I am a year plus since F/CF diagnosis and have found your videos to be my sole choice for fibro friendly workouts. I just did the shoulder one for the first time and will be adding that to my fibro set. I go to PT weekly and acupuncture 1-2x month. Your videos have been a perfect compliment to my overall therapy. I haven't tired of them at all because they are perfectly curated. My cat enjoys following along as well, she knows your voice : ) Thank you for what you do.

      Hi Rachel. I found this video last fall. It helps me. I have fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis. I am in a painful fibromyalgia flare without electricity since 6:30 this morning in Southeast Texas. Hurricane Beryl left us without power. I just did this series of stretching (thankful for the TH-cam app on my phone.😂) Thank you Rachel for creating this stretching video....God bless you! John 3:16

    Thank you Rachel ❤️. It is such a blessing that you try to cater for all your followers needs. I will definitely try this workout, hopefully in this coming week. I am currently working my way through a Fibromyalgia flare after contracting seasanal flu🤧🤒, as we are in the middle of winter here in South Africa, and an extremely cold one🥶. I actually did your Post Covid class this week, just to get some movement into my body, as I know through experience that rest only is not the best thing to overcome Fibro flares. Once again thank you for your time and effort as you put together exercises to help your followers with whatever they need. May the Lord bless you with good health to keep on doing what you are doing 🙏🙏💐

    That was absolutely lovely! Did your recent band workout yesterday, and been gardening lately, so a bit achy, especially in lower back. I don’t have fibromyalgia or rheumatoid arthritis, but both workouts are restful, warming, stretchy and delightful!🤗 Sometimes I want to flex and stretch and warm up a bit, residual brain surgery deficits (ataxia, balance, fatigue) take their toll if I overdo exercise. But this is lovely, thanks so much for using your knowledge, empathy and talents to help all of us keep moving, whatever our situation!💪🏼👍🏻🧡💛💚💙

    Thank you. That was beautiful and very gentle.
    I enjoyed it from the start working up to the pelvic bridges and also the knee stretches. Rotating the arms from over the head to the side is tricking but will work on it. I modified it to just do one arm and that seems to be less strain on the back muscles and shoulder.

The Pilates is getting harder mentally and physically as the pain gets worse. I will continue my Pilates but this gave me some more options and something I can do on a daily basis.

    Thankyou Rachel. I did this as a post covid stretch. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia 8 yrs ago and it was so bad i was seriously thinking i needed to change career and move to a house with no stairs. My rheumatologist said keep moving so i did. 3 yrs later i ran a half marathon. Perhaps i took it a bit far but the keep moving advice was the best advice i recieved. Good for my body and really good for my mental health.

    Hi Rachel, many thanks for this, I’ve been doing something similar from what I know from the past. The child pose is great to finish with! I’ve found having the attitude that “I’m still here despite all of this pain” is one of the best strategies; it empowers you to venture into doing what you want to a lot more!

      Sorry to hear that of youe svere fibromyalgia. If you feel you could do a little mire can I suggest that you aim to do this session 3-4 times a week for the next 4 weeks and see how you feel. With a chroni problem I know you can have good days and bad days so my advice to build your strength is to start wit increasing the regularity of your sessions. If, after four weeks of 3/4 times a week you feel ready to move on I will happily suggest what to do next. Take your time as we want you feeling great again and the best way is steady increases so your body has time to adjust. Let me know how you get on ina few weeks. 🤗

    Beim Yoga sollte die Stimme sehr leise und entspannend sein, leider stört sie sehr. Die Übungen sind großartig, aber Menschen mit Fibromyalgie können den Lärm im Allgemeinen nicht ertragen. Wenn Sie einen Vorschlag wünschen: Die auf Deutsch sind wirklich entspannend, die sehr süße und sehr tiefe Stimme.
