What is Pilates?
Pilates is a program of exercises individually tailored to your requirements. It can be used to treat, rehabilitate and prevent injuries through core strengthening, body awareness, flexibility and postural retraining. We use floor based movements as well as equipment such as reformer beds, trapeze tables and arc barrels. Integrating Pilates with physiotherapy treatments can facilitate long term relief from pain, reduce the rate of recurrence of injury and improve overall quality of life.
Pilates is great for:
- Runners
- Desk workers
- Golfers
- Dancers
- Crossfit athletes
- Pre/post-natal ladies and pelvic floor dysfunction
- Regaining full and pain-free range of motion of the shoulders, hips and spine
- Triathletes
- Symptomatic management of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis
- Scoliosis
Our experienced Pilates instructors can complete 1:1, 2:1 or 3:1 private sessions in our Bargara practice. There is an opportunity for 1:1 or 2:1 in our Bundaberg practice. If the sessions are not 1:1, prior to scheduling sessions with your other elected training partners, please ensure to have completed an assessment. This will be tailored to your requirements, per individual. A prior assessment is necessary to ensure that you can understand exercises and cues with confidence. Please be aware that we do not offer classes, these sessions are private and under the supervision of qualified Physiotherapists, claimable by applicable health funds & DVA for your rehabilitation purposes.
Please contact reception for further details.
