Pilates and Rehab Pilates in Victoria
|
STOTT PILATES is scientifically-based intelligent exercise programming that has been developed by expert fitness and health professionals, used by people of all ages and fitness levels from the elderly and injured to the elite athletes training for competition.
At Remedy Wellness Centre we focus primarily on restoring proper biomechanics, rehabilitation, restoring mobility and strength, aligning the spine and peripheral joints. We use a systematic movement based approach to neuromuscular re-education by observing and understanding optimal and non-optimal movement strategies, and how these strategies correlate with pain and pathology. |
"Exercises are designed to prevent and rehabilitate common injuries by balancing and strengthening the muscles around the joints in order to restore and maintain healthy movement patterns." -Merrithew Corp.
