Clinical Pilates

We offer two types of pilates at our clinic:

 

Private Clinical Pilates 

Specifically trained practitioners combine traditional pilates with current physiotherapy research on spinal stability and biomechanics.

Clinical pilates is a gentle but effective way of strengthening your body, namely your back and core. It is a type of exercise which incorporates the whole body. It is an ideal form of rehabilitation or exercise whether your are recovering from an injury, working on injury prevention or would like to keep fit and toned. 

The benefits of clinical pilates include:

  • improved strength and control 

  • Improved posture

  • Improved breathing control

  • Improved body awareness 

  • Teaches you how to use your body and its joints and muscles optimally 

Our physiotherapists are qualified in both mat and reformer based pilates and are trained in Clinical Pilates through DMA and APPI.
