What is pilates?

Pilates is a low-impact form of exercise that focuses the improving stability, flexibility, strength and overall body awareness. The movements in Pilates are controlled, with a strong focus on breathing and proper form/alignment.

What is clinical pilates?

Clinical Pilates is a specialized form of pilates that has been developed by physiotherapists to which focusses on rehabilitating and preventing injuries, improving posture, core stability, and overall physical fitness.

Unlike traditional Pilates, which is often

taught in a group setting and may not be tailored to individual needs, clinical Pilates is

conducted either one-on-one or in small group classes with a trained physiotherapist who can develop a personalised program to meet your specific needs and goals.

At Aeon Health, we have a range of Pilates equipment on which exercises can be performed such as a mat, reformer, combo-chair (aka wundachair) and wall tower.

So, what are the benefits of clinical Pilates? Let’s take a closer look:

Improved core strength and stability

It is an effective way to improve your core stability, which is essential for good posture and proper movement. By strengthening the muscles in the abdomen, lower back and pelvis, clinical Pilates can also help reduce your risk of injury and alleviate pain in your back, hips, and knees.

Increased flexibility

Clinical Pilates involves gentle, controlled movements that can help improve your flexibility and range of motion. This can be especially beneficial if you have tight muscles or suffer from conditions such as arthritis or joint pain.

Assists with injury rehabilitation

We often use clinical Pilates as part of a rehabilitation program for those who have suffered from an injury. Exercises and programs are tailored specifically to your needs, allowing you to regain strength, mobility, and flexibility.

Enhanced balance and coordination

It can also help improve your balance and coordination, which can be especially important for older adults or those recovering from an injury or surgery. Clinical Pilates exercises help to reduce the risk of falls and can help you maintain your independence for longer.

Reduced stress and anxiety

Clinical Pilates, like many other forms of exercise, can be an good way to reduce stress and anxiety. The slow, controlled movements and the focus on breathing during exercise can calm the mind and reduce tension in the body.
