Clinical Pilates is a 1:1 or 2:1 session, it is advisable if you are recovering from an injury, have a back, neck, shoulder issue or have been regularly seeing a health professional for treatment.
Initially a full postural assessment is taken so that advice can be given to improve your posture and find out which exercises are going to be the most beneficial. Often it is muscle imbalance that is causing the pain and stiffness, by lengthening and strengthening the correct muscles the symptoms can be alleviated, sometimes completely. If you have ever visited a health professional and they have sent you home with a list of exercises to do this is Clinical Pilates.
During our everyday life we develop poor movement/muscle patterns which over time become a 'habit', for example: sitting hunched at computer, a slouched driving position, bending forward with the legs straight etc. By retraining the body and mind we can change this 'habit' to a more efficient way of moving and exercising pain free.
Various equipment is used to balance muscles and re-align the spine, one of the pieces used in a clinical session is the Pilates reformer. This is a machine that works with the resistance of springs and ropes to encourage strength and control to every move.
