What is Pilates?
Pilates is a full body conditioning programme that helps to retrain the body’s normal movement patterns. At Aquasports Physiotherapy we use DMA Pilates equipment which enables our clients to increase muscle strength, core stability and flexibility in a controlled pain free way. Our specialist physiotherapy Pilates instructors ensure your personalised programme will meet your goals as quickly as possible.
