What are the Benefits of Clinical Pilates?
Clinical Pilates offers several advantages over traditional Pilates, primarily due to the physiotherapist’s presence. With a physiotherapist guiding you through each session, your exercises can be adjusted to your ability, whether that means increasing intensity or simplifying them for pain-free participation. This personalized attention ensures that exercises are always appropriate for your specific condition.
The expertise of physiotherapists is invaluable, particularly for those with medical conditions or recovering from injuries. Physiotherapists can adapt exercises in real-time, ensuring safety and effectiveness for all participants. Before starting classes, your physiotherapist will take a medical history to understand any relevant health concerns or pre-existing injuries, allowing for tailored instruction.
During each class, the physiotherapist will offer progressions or modifications based on individual needs. This makes Clinical Pilates an ideal option for those with conditions like osteoporosis, joint replacements, or prenatal/postnatal concerns, allowing participants to build strength and flexibility with confidence and safety.
