PRIVATE PILATES SESSIONS
It has been proven that Pilates for rehabilitation works. Pilates is used as an effective program to improve strength, flexibility, range of motion, balance, and stability after suffering an injury or while suffering from a chronic disorder. We work with many clients who are recovering from athletic injuries, battling chronic pain, or just looking to improve their day-to-day mobility. The benefits of using a Pilates-based rehabilitation program under the supervision of a certified Pilates instructor are remarkable in the medical field. At our studio, the full range of Pilates exercises are modified by one of our qualified instructors and tailored to your individual needs. Whether you are an elite athlete, elderly individual, or somewhere in between, we can tailor Pilates to suit your rehabilitation needs. One amazing study showed an 85% improvement in reducing pain and an 87% improvement in increasing mobility. The study lasted over six months and showed that Pilates is a great tool to use as part of your rehabilitation. Pilates can help reduce pain, increase recovery time, and even stop back pain and neck pain. Call or email us today to set up your personal one-on-one evaluation for Pilates for Rehabilitation.
Athletes using traditional athletic training methods will find they develop the muscles required in a specific sport, but often find the training does not address the stabilizing muscles around the joints or the torso. Often, one muscle is identified and exercises are designed to isolate that muscle, usually in a single plane of motion. However, Pilates exercises can be more complex than traditional moves and will therefore recruit a larger number of muscle groups or strengthen the same muscles from many angles and in a variety of different ranges of motion, ultimately benefiting the athlete on various physical and mental levels. Pilates helps athletes develop core strength, increase flexibility, assist in rehabilitation after injury and create muscular balance throughout the entire body. As a result, athletes can withstand rigorous training programs and ultimately improve their golf drive, split times, running speed or baseball pitch, prevent or recover from injury, and maintain an optimal fitness level for the activity of choice. At Pilates on the Beach we have instructors that specialize in training a wide variety of athletes, with personalizable programs for golf, football, baseball, basketball, volleyball, running, cycling, swimming and dancing. Call or email us today to find out how we can help you improve your athletic performance through private one-on-one training.
