Pilates was a method developed to enhance body awareness, but it required considerable flexibility and a wide range of motion, and was aimed at a physically active and healthy population.
The need to adapt the exercises to a wider range of people (neurology, orthopedics, sports, women's health, etc.) led to the creation of Clinical Pilates by physical therapists, which focuses on activating the deep muscles.
This method consists of an initial assessment to evaluate each person's specific needs and limitations, so that the exercise plan meets the desired goals, whether they are recovery from injury or post-surgery, injury prevention, strength gain, balance, or mobility.
The great advantage is that the professional who guides the method knows the indications, contraindications, and adaptations of each exercise, making Clinical Pilates a safe, effective, and personalized approach. In addition to the clinical factor, the everyday education aspect stands out: some key exercises for home, ergonomic adjustments, and strategies for various activities, promoting long-term results.
If you have pain, an injury, or a condition, Clinical Pilates offers a safe and guided way to regain confidence in your body. Check the services we offer regarding this article.
