Clinical Pilates in Chester

Clinical Pilates in Chester - How can it help you?

   The Pilates Method is a combined mind-body technique that focuses on the strength and control of the muscles around the spine and pelvis while enhancing postural awareness through controlled movement patterns. This is achieved through a progressive series of specialised exercises that increase in intensity as you improve.

      Pilates is often referred to as a ‘thinking exercise’ because it requires concentration, precision, and control. Rather than focusing on the large, stronger muscles (the ones normally used for sports or gym work), this technique emphasises engaging the deep postural muscles in the lower back, abdomen, neck, and shoulder area. This helps support the body in daily activities and movement.

    By learning and producing quality, controlled movement, Clinical Pilates can start to help address pain, weakness, and posture in a controlled and supportive environment.
