What is Clinical Pilates?
Clinical Pilates uses a number of original and modified Pilates exercises and is given on a prescriptive basis. It is instructed by a qualified physiotherapist after a musculoskeletal or injury assessment. At Physio Effect, we deliver mat work, small equipment and Reformer based Clinical Pilates on a 1:1 basis and small group classes (maximum of 5 participants) as part of your rehabilitation. This may be suggested as the most effective form of treatment and rehabilitation programme for your condition by your physiotherapist on assessment.
The difference between Clinical Pilates and the traditional Pilates method is that you will be firstly assessed by a Pilates-trained Physiotherapist and then have a tailored programme of Pilates exercises given to you. During the session, you will be given exercises to do specific to your individual circumstance. This is usually a prehabilitation or rehabilitation programme relevant to an existing injury (e.g. back pain or post-surgical etc) or a specific condition (e.g. ante - post natal, hypermobility, fybromylagia etc) that will be discussed at an initial Physiotherapy Assessment ahead of you starting your block of classes.

“I have been attending Mariam’s Clinical Pilates classes and they are superb. Because the classes are small (max 5 people) Mariam is able to ensure everyone does exercises which are relevant to their individual problems/injuries.”
