This week has brought some exciting news, not only am I now a qualified level 3 pilates instructor, but I have been told that I have passed my Pilates for Orthopaedic Conditions course!
This means I can help more people become active again, stay active, and take GP referrals.
I have been trained in many different issues, including:
- Osteoporosis
- Arthritis
- Specific Back Pain – Trapped Nerve, Sciatica, Slipped Disc
- Non-Specific Back Pain – Caused by general living, posture etc
- Shoulder issues – Frozen Shoulder, Rotator Cuff Impingement
- Knee and Hip Replacements
- Knee Injuries
The list goes on! This doesn’t mean I can diagnose you, but when you are ready to exercise I can work with what your Physio and GP have advised you to do, and get you back to working order.
Pilates is great for keeping you healthy by working at a low impact level to gain core strength, mobility and natural flexibility in your body.
If you suffer from an achey back, but there is no underlining issue you can come to a class. Also if you are Hypermobile but not had any issues with it, you can also come to a class. If you have any other conditions listed above you would need to have seen a medical professional first. I can then help you either privately or in a small group class.
Please always let me know if you have an existing condition prior to joining any class.
