Pilates for Autoimmune Disorders

Pilates for Multiple sclerosis, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Lymes Disease, Thyroiditis, and a whole number of recognised autoimmune disorders. Exercise/Pilates, clean wholesome nutrition and immunosuppression medication is the number one defense of controling the different autoimmune diseases to live a life without complications and keeping the joints moving in a full range of motion (Elizabeth has worked with Autoimmune patients for close to 40 years with possitive results, and also helping to get many different people with and without MS ready for the MS-150). Wikipedia writes: "Autoimmune diseases arise from an inappropriate immune response of the body against substances and tissues normally present in the body (autoimmunity). This may be restricted to certain organs or involve a particulare tissue in different places. The treatment of autoimmune diseases is typically with immunosuppression medication that decreases the immune response."
