Rehabilitation & Pilates
Working with clients with hip and knee replacements is becoming more popular within our studio. For some clients it’s more about prolonging the inevitable and helping them with pain relief, strengthen weaken muscles around the hip and knee before surgery.
Our expert instructors are qualified, friendly and approachable providing you with a personal experience. Our premium Pilate’s equipment is from balanced body. Using the equipment through the assisting and resisting springs allows for modifications of the exercises for a range of abilities from beginners to advanced.
You can learn how to re-train your body to move safer and create efficient patterns of motion which are valuable for injury prevention/recovery, sports performance, good posture and optimal health.
From Hugh Jervis, 10th March 2013
I am writing to compliment you on your efforts to deal with the arthritis issue with my right knee over the last 15 months since Dec 2011 . During this period I have attended most of your weekly rehabilitation classes together with a course of 15 individual sessions in Autumn 2012 in addition to some initial individual consultations in early 2012.
When I first came to your classes I had extreme difficulty in walking and subsequently I have been diagnosed as requiring a knee replacement when I am 65 .( now aged 60)
During these sessions you have been diligent in addressing some of the root causes of my difficulties in walking from spine positioning through to gait patterning and your observations and exercises have been helpful in reducing pain without the use of drugs . Additionally the general Pilates rehabilitation classes have contributed to personal fitness and core strength to the extent that my dinghy sailing has improved somewhat as a result .
I would like to take this last opportunity to wish you every success with your venture at the Nuffield Surbiton as I am now moving out of the area.
Very best wishes for the future
Hugh
