Clinical Pilates
The history of Pilates
The Pilates method was developed at the beginning of the 20th century in America by Joseph H. Pilates, who, knowing in depth the human anatomy and physiology, wanted to create a quality and integrated way of exercise. He believed that the human body has a center of gravity ("powerhouse", as he called it), on which its balance depends. For this reason it is necessary to control and stabilize the center of the body, i.e. the abdomen and the waist. His method therefore focuses on strengthening the core muscles of the spine (back), abdominals and pelvic floor muscles, which contribute to the balance of the whole body.What is Clinical Pilates?
Clinical Pilates is a form of therapeutic exercise suitable for sports injuries, acute or chronic spinal pain syndromes, osteoporosis, rheumatism and arthritis, pelvic floor problems and musculoskeletal problems. It works "remedial" for healthy bodies and helps to avoid possible future injuries to weak points. In essence, we can say that it helps the body as a whole to find its correct posture, which is lost either because of a bad position during work, or because of some daily habits (walking with heels, lifting weights, using a computer, etc.), or generally from the way of life we followOur approach
Through small-member classes, we personalize exercise, focus on the needs and capabilities of each patient's body, and through a specialized and well-trained approach, we guide them to cope, not only with the demands of exercise, but also of their daily life.Sessions can be individual or group (up to 4 people) using mats (Pilates Mat) or the Pilates bed (Pilates Reformer).
