It was Joseph Pilates whose theories form the foundation of stability
and rehabilitation. At Swan Valley Physiotherapy the therapist focuses
on ‘control’ rather than physical strength, when it comes to pilates.
Core strength is very important for functional movement. Therefore,
our program is focused on internal rehabilitation.
Pilates is also closely linked with physiotherapy.
Together they form the backbone for rehabilitative treatment.
Pilates has applications for:
- Musculoskeletal needs– sports and spinal
- Orthopaedics
- Women’s health (Including pre & post natal)
- Occupational Health
- Paediatrics
- Elderly population
The amazing benefits of Pilates include:
- Prevents injuries
- Aids Rehabiliation
- Rectifies postural imbalances and improves flexibility
- Improves muscular strength and stabilization
- Increases muscle and joint mobility
- Restores normal movement patterns
- Improves overall body toning
- Enhanced breathing control
- Firmer and flatter stomach muscles
