Clinical pilates vs fitness pilates
Clinical Pilates is a form of exercise that aims to strengthen muscles, improve flexibility and balance and prevent injuries occurring.
Clinical Pilates is suited to those recovering from injury/ surgery, the pregnant and post-partum population, chronic pain sufferers, adolescents, older adults at risk of falls and those wanting to maintain mobility and strength.
Clinical pilates differs from fitness based pilates in that it takes a more personalised approach to treatment and is guided by an experienced health practitioner, with further qualifications in clinical pilates.
Both types of Pilates help prevent injuries, improve muscle function and support joint health, making them excellent choices for enhancing physical well-being and overall health.
