Rehabilitation Pilates

We offer a range of Rehabilitation Pilates Classes at goPhysio in Chandlers Ford.

"When I'm in a normal pilates class, I often think to myself, I wish I had my physio here too, to give me the correct advice & answer my questions" - Well, now you have the opportunity.

Our classes have a maximum of 8 participants, meaning you will get individualised attention throughout your course. They are run by an experienced physiotherapist, who will understand your exact needs, problems & goals. The physio instructor will be able to progress each participant at their own individual rate within the class. As a result of this level of understanding, knowledge & attention, you will get more from the class and feel a noticeable benefit from pilates.

Pilates has, in recent years, experienced a 'boom' on the world of health & fitness. Every gym, health club and local village hall now offers pilates classes. These classes are normally based on 'Traditional Pilates'.

Traditional pilates is a system of exercises (developed back in the 1920's) that aims to strengthen the core tummy, postural & back muscles. However, traditional pilates exercises are very physically demanding and not particularly suitable for people with back pain, neck pain or any other injuries. Traditional pilates can in fact make these conditions worse.

Rehabilitation Pilates is different to a Traditional Pilates class you may attend at the gym. Rehabilitation Pilates has been specifically developed for use by physiotherapists to target the deep postural muscles of the tummy and spine to improve central 'core stability' & posture. Pilates exercises can also improve spinal mobility, increase flexibility of the key trunk and leg muscle groups and improve body and postural awareness. Rehabilitation pilates is particularly suitable for you if you suffer with back or neck pain or have suffered a specific injury. It is also a great way of preventing injuries or preparing for sport.

How do I attend a course?

We run regular pilates classes at goPhysio in Chandlers Ford. To find out when the next course starts, please give us a call or send us an email. The courses normally run for 8 weeks.

Our pilates classes are here to help you achieve a specific goal and improve your physical well-being. To ensure this, it is essential that you come to our an introductory session before you attend a course. This will normally take place the week before the course starts.

The Introductory Session will:

• Ensure that rehabilitation pilates is actually suitable for you before you embark on a course
• Help you identify what you want to achieve from coming to pilates
• Screen any injuries or problems that we need to be aware of
• Teach you the foundation pilates exercises. This will help you get straight into the course when you start, as you will be familiar with the basis of pilates exercises

If you are already seeing a physio at goPhysio, they may recommend that you attend a course of pilates to supplement or progress your treatment. As they will already know the exact nature of your problem and what you need to work on, they will pass this information onto the physio running the pilates class and help you to book onto the next available course without needing the introductory session.
