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:
