Clinical Pilates

Clinical Pilates works for a wide range of age groups – over the years I have taught 16 year olds up to 80+ year olds! As each Reformer session is Physio led, it involves clinical Pilates to ensure suitable exercise prescription, measurement of outcome, with special consideration of previous or current musculoskeletal injuries/neurogenic symptoms/past orthopaedic surgeries.

Common reasons for seeking Clinical Pilates:

• Helping to counteract a sedentary desk based job.

• Managing a current injury.

• Pre-operative rehab.

• Returning to fitness post operatively.

• Injury prevention and improvement of sporting performance.

• For women from Peri through to Post Menopause. Designed to increase strength, bone health and balance through resistance training and weight bearing exercises.

• Wishing for individualised attention with a bespoke programme.

• Your Physio or Doctor have recommended pilates for example to aid the management of lower back pain.

• Struggling to get to grips with the Pilates principles in a group setting.

• Training balance and manage conditions such as osteoporosis in senior citizens.

Antenatal and Post natal

• Reformer Pilates when supervised in this 1:1 fashion can support movements and provide suitable global body resistance & stretching exercises, with special considerations of key areas in the antenatal and postnatal periods. Every session is led by a Chartered Physiotherapist who has undertaken additionally training in Antenatal and Post natal Reformer so you can feel reassured you are in safe hands.
