Clinical Pilates
- At Maylands Physiotherapy every patient who wishes to commence
Pilates is screened using a Real Time Ultrasound Imaging machine
to ensure that they exercise at the appropriate level
- Our classes have between one and three people so that careful
individual attention can be given by the physiotherapist
- We use a Pilates Reformes (sliding exercise bed) when the patient
has achieved a level where this is appropriate
- Pilates can therefore be used to progress core stability retraining
and improve general muscle tone in the major muscle groups
- Pilates is excellent at improving posture as it primarily targets these
muscle groups when taught and performed correctly
