Clinical Pilates
Physio-led Pilates classes tailored for injury recovery and prevention. Sessions incorporate mat work and equipment-based exercises to improve core strength, flexibility, and balance. Available at four skill levels with one-to-one assessments ensuring safe progression. Particularly effective for lower back pain and sports performance enhancement.

Treatment combines soft tissue therapy, biomechanical analysis, and sport-specific conditioning. Return-to-play protocols ensure safe resumption of athletic activities.
