Other services we offer
Empowered, Move, Nurture
We have a clinical reformer service run by our women’s health physiotherapists that centers around the antenatal and postnatal time in a woman’s life. This service empowers a woman to continue to exercise throughout her pregnancy with tailored guidance from a physiotherapist in a small class of 6. If you are interested in reformer pilates with specialised input from a physiotherapist during your childbearing journey, please book an initial consultation with our team to enquire.
Please note, spaces and class availability are limited with this service due to high demand and clinician availability. If you have questions around what services we can provide, please call our team or email: womens.health@coralcoastphysio.com.au
