Pilates is a form of exercise accessible to all. It is great for adults, kids, sportspeople and the older population.
It focuses on strength, core stability, flexibility, muscle control, posture and breathing.
Your goal may be to improve posture, sports performance, muscle tone, rehabilitate from injury or just be able to move more efficiently and without pain. Pilates can help with all of these goals. The benefit of doing Pilates with a physiotherapist is that physiotherapists have a sound knowledge of clinical pathology and movement analysis and we understand how to modify exercises to accommodate injury or movement restriction.
At Twyford Physiotherapy you will start with a 1:1 assessment. This will involve getting a history of any injuries or concerns, checking your health and then assessing your movement. We will discuss your goals and then work to develop a programme that is individual to you. You will receive close guidance on technique. Follow-up sessions allow for progression of these exercises.
