Clinical Pilates Cheltenham

Clinical Pilates Cheltenham

Pilates sessions are a powerful way to use the fundamentals of the Pilates system to correctly engage the body’s core. It is a physical fitness system practiced worldwide that was developed by the founder Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century.

First called ‘Contrology’, the Pilates method is experiencing a resurgence of popularity, particularly in countries like Canada, the UK, America, and Australia. It is a form of low-impact exercises that target the body’s core in order to strengthen the surrounding muscles and improve postural alignment and flexibility.

It involves precise, slow movements and breath control with or without the use of equipment. At mhealth our Clinical Pilates instructors all have graduate degrees with a sound anatomical background. Our programmes are based on sound, clinical reasoning skills and designed to be integrated into daily fitness exercises, sports activities, work, and overall lifestyle.

We use “Clinical Pilates” exercises to tailor the exercises to your specific needs. We are careful to take into consideration your personal level of fitness, any injuries you may have, and your self-mastery abilities in order to safely get you moving properly.
