Physiotherapists assess, diagnose, treat and rehabilitate injuries and physical ailments using a variety of manual “hands on” techniques as well as extensive clinical exercises.

What is clinical pilates?

The Pilates Method was developed in the early 20th century in Germany by Joseph Pilates.
Initially it was created to enhance the training of dancers.
Pilates is now used by elite athletes, children, senior citizens and everyone in between!
Pilates is a form of physical exercise that focuses on core stability, strength, flexibility, balance, posture and breathing.
Physiotherapists have adapted these methods to compliment their expert knowledge of movement, function, injury and rehabilitation to create Clinical Pilates.
Clinical Pilates is one of the many rehabilitation techniques our Physiotherapists use in the Physiotherapy Rehabilitation and Exercise Group Classes.
