Clinical Pilates in Williamstown
Clinical Pilates is a form of physical exercise that focuses on posture, core stability, balance, control, strength, flexibility, and breathing. It is often used in conjunction with physiotherapy as a means of treating a variety of injuries.
The research shows strong evidence for the use of therapeutic exercise in managing patients with musculoskeletal injuries, and specifically low back pain, spinal pain and pre- and post-natal rehabilitation. Recent research advocates the retraining of the deep stabilising muscles for patients with low back pain.

We Have Both Individual & Group Classes
Clinical Physio (Clinical Pilates) sessions are offered in:
- Individual (1-on-1)
- Group classes (1-on-4)
For someone who would prefer more focus and attention on their movements, and may be in the early stage of their rehab, individual sessions are usually the best option. For someone who may be in their mid to late stage rehab, or may already have experience with Pilates, semi-private group classes is a better option.
Clinical Physio classes will include a combination of mat, reformer, trapeze and general exercise.
