Equipment-based
Clinical Pilates can help you achieve a body that is stronger and more flexible with an increased postural awareness. It's based upon the exercise philosophy of German fitness trainer Joseph Pilates, but has been adapted by physiotherapists. Essentially, Clinical Pilates teaches the deep spinal muscles to work more effectively so the trunk is more stable.
Clinical Pilates is beneficial for everyone, even those free of aches and pains. In particular, it can help people who suffer from back or neck pain; poor posture; headaches; are overweight; employed in sedentary or manual work; sportspeople or athletes (injured or not); pre and post-natal women; teens with poor posture or growth spurts; the elderly, as well as performers such as dancers, actors, singers and musicians.
Clincal Pilates is available in one-on-one sessions or group sessions (up to three participants per physiotherapist). Or in a class of up to 5 participants.
