Our Clinic includes a beautiful pilates room and includes pilates reformers, trapeze table, pilates barrel and various equipment for floor/mat based pilates exercise.
Benefits of Clinical Pilates
- improved flexibility
- increased strength, and
- enhanced control and endurance in the entire body.
Pilates especially targets core strength and trunk control with an emphasis on alignment, breathing and improving coordination and balance.
This develops a base on which arm and leg movements are performed, enhancing function and performance of the entire body.
More than stability
Clinical pilates has moved on from generic “core stability” work to individualised “functional stability” programs.
This incorporates stability and quality through movement as that is what you need for life.
Individualised treatment
Assessment is used to screen movement, motor control and muscle strength and your program can be tailored to meet your specific abilities and needs.
It is important to become familiar with the basic principles before adding more complex exercises or equipment.
Who is Clinical Pilates for?
These programs can be used with people of all abilities and progressed as you improve.
Whether you are a sportsperson, chronic pain sufferer, pre/post surgery, person with a disability or just wanting to move better, clinical pilates can be suitable for you.
