Pilates

Pilates is a tried and tested form of exercise that is "here to stay". The original work of Joseph Pilates has been modified and modernised to create an intelligent, graceful and powerful form of exercise. "Clinical Pilates" has been created to address the need for specific and effective medically and scientifically based exercise therapy. The regular and specific practise of Pilates promises to deliver the following benefits:

• Reduced back and neck pain
• Postural re-education
• Muscle reprogramming to enable you to move and hold yourself more efficiently
• Improved flexibility
• Improved core strength and hip stability
• Reduced risk of injury from work and sport
• Improved athletic performance
• Improved golf swing, swimming stroke or running action
• Better pregancies, deliveries and recovery from birth
• Better balance and reduced risk of falls
• Reduced stress levels
• Improved breathing patterns
• Body re-shaping - a flatter and more toned abdomen and improved muscle definition and tone

Either performed on specialised equipment or on the mat, Pilates, if performed regularly will give you a sense of relaxed invigoration. It focuses the mind, re-energises the body and improves your general health and well-being.
