1:1 CLINICAL PILATES This is one-on-one Pilates personal training supervised by a qualified Pilates Instructor who has undergone specific training to deal with Injuries and Special Populations. Exercises combine the use of matwork, stability chair, vertical frame and the rehab reformer which is set higher off the ground to accommodate clients with less mobility which may prevent them from comfortably using a lower reformer. We recommend clinical Pilates for clients for: - Prehab & injury rehab - Neurological conditions (MS & Parkinson's Disease) - Chronic pain syndromes (frozen shoulder, fibromyalgia, low back pain) - Degenerative conditions (osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, knee & hip OA) - Runners & cyclists - Pre/post pregnancy - Build confidence on equipment before regular classes - Extra attention & guidance |
1:1 Initial clinical Pilates sessions combined with remedial therapy (with Lahn) run for 60 minutes and include a postural assessment, muscle and orthopedic testing and soft tissue therapy where required. All follow up clinical sessions run for 50 minutes. As you progress through your training and rehabilitation, your instructor will work closely with you to determine when it is suitable for you to attend a regular Clinical Small Group Pilates session.

HOW TO SET UP YOUR REFORMER

Our approach to Pilates: Our instructors are certified in contemporary Pilates methods with experience teaching people from all fitness levels, movement needs and rehab goals. Our goal is to give you tools to help you move pain free, for as long as possible. A smooth, easy, relaxed approach to movement can also equal a great, challenging and sometimes sweaty workout, where appropriate. There will be times when your body will burn, fatigue and want to give up. We're here for you. There will be times when you'll be mentally and spatially challenged. You'll get body/brain smarter. Guaranteed. We work you to the best of your ability on the day and sometimes push you further than you thought was possible. Most importantly, we listen to you and modify exercises to suit your needs. Fitness, strength, stability and flexibility comes with good form, so don't be misled by the hard and fast approach, because burning in that one muscle doesn't mean you did it correctly. We keep our group classes small on purpose so no one feels lost in the crowd and to ensure your success.
Referrals: Many of our Clinical Pilates clients have been referred to us by local GP's, physiotherapists, osteopaths and chiropractors. If you're not being trained by a fully certified Pilates instructor, you may be missing out on vital exercises and modifications to suit your particular needs. You DO NOT need a referral to start Pilates but it is recommended if you have an existing medical condition that is managed by a medical specialist or for our prenatal clients, a history of miscarriages.
Private Health Insurance: Following a recent government review, changes were made to the Private Health Insurance rules, allowing health funds to reintroduce coverage for seven natural therapy services from 1 July 2025. HCF welcomes the recent government changes and are now accepting claims for Pilates under Health Management Programs.
If your doctor or physio has recommended a gym program or exercise program like Pilates to treat a specific medical condition (like arthritis, hypertension, obesity, asthma, diabetes or osteoporosis) you can claim towards the cost if you have eligible extras cover, subject to annual limits. A two-month waiting period applies and the benefits are subject to annual limits. Ask your doctor, physio or other allied health provider to fill in the exercise and gym benefits form. Please contact your health fund for further information.
NDIS: Clients on a self managed plan may claim NDIS for their 1:1 clinical and 1:3 clinical small group sessions. Or speak to your plan manager before booking. It often depends on who you ask.
STUDIO HEALTH & SAFETY: Protect the surface, protect yourself. All equipment must be cleaned with the sprays provided after each use and non-slip Pilates socks must be worn during your session.

In 20 you will see the difference
and in 30, you will be on the path to a whole new body."
