Clinical Pilates Integrated into Physiotherapy for Enhanced Outcome
What is Clinical Pilates?
Clinical Pilates, also known as Physio-Pilates, is a modified form of Pilates that combines the core principles of Pilates with physiotherapy. There is strong evidence in medical literature supporting its effectiveness in managing various conditions, particularly low back pain.
At Core Fitness, Clinical Pilates is integrated into physiotherapy sessions and conducted under the supervision of a physiotherapist trained in Pilates. These tailored exercises aim to restore optimal movement patterns, activate and improve core muscle flexibility, and support recovery from sprains, strains, muscular and joint injuries, chronic or degenerative pain, and post-surgical rehabilitation.
