What can I expect from my Clinical Pilates Exercise Program?
A program specific to YOU
The Physio Studio offers individually designed exercise programs led by our skilled sports physiotherapists, incorporating strength work, clinical Pilates, and flexibility and balance training. After a comprehensive assessment, your program is developed and adjusted over a series of 1:1sessions.
Once you have completed your sessions and feel confident with your program, you can take part in our Studio Equipment classes. Those who are comfortable with their routine may also choose to become a casual studio member, gaining access to the equipment outside scheduled classes.
Discover Our Pilates Studio
We offer a fully equipped, air-conditioned Pilates studio where we run our EQUIP Pilates classes. Here, clients are able to attend the many supervised Pilates-based exercise classes scheduled throughout the week or 1:1 intensive sessions provided by our physiotherapists.
Our sessions incorporate a variety of equipment, including Pilates reformers, chi balls, trapeze tables, and balance balls, ensuring a workout that is both engaging and effective. The added resistance from the equipment supports a full-body workout while focusing on core stability. Whether you’re managing back or neck discomfort, dealing with other aches or pains, or looking to enhance your core strength, Pilates—through group classes or private sessions—could be the ideal way to support your fitness goals.
Our Team of Certified Pilates Instructors
Our Clinical Pilates program is run by our experienced team of physiotherapists with clinical knowledge and training in sports physiotherapy and Pilates. Members of the team are DMA Pilates Physiotherapists and also have training from the KX Academy, making them well-rounded and incredibly knowledgeable when it comes to Pilates.
The DMA approach is widely regarded as the leading method for clinical Pilates among physiotherapists. Unlike traditional Pilates, it focuses on identifying the underlying causes of symptoms rather than just managing them. At The Physio Studio, director Sean Bushby is a level 4 DMA Pilates physiotherapist, and Scott Palmer holds a level 1 certification. Our team of six skilled physios is eager to welcome you and help you get started with Pilates.
Pilates Classes We Offer
Our skilled physiotherapists oversee every class, maintaining a supportive environment with a maximum of 6 clients per session for focused guidance.
EQUIP (Reformer Pilates)
Named EQUIP because they prepare and equip you for improved balance, mobility, and endurance, our reformer Pilates classes incorporate Pilates reformers and other equipment like chi balls. If your goal is to develop Pilates skills on a reformer, EQUIP is the ideal class to join.
Vital
Your core muscles are vital, but Pilates reformers aren’t always vital to every Pilates session! Our Vital classes are mat-based, where exercises are done on mats on the floor. Proving equipment isn’t always necessary to a Pilates workout, mat Pilates in our Vital classes also aim to improve core muscle strength, endurance, and posture.
Pregnancy Pilates
Our studio equipment classes can accommodate prenatal exercise. Our physiotherapists can advise on what classes and exercises are suitable for you depending on your health, stage of pregnancy, and prenatal experience. Please feel free to contact us for more information. Our floor-based Vital Pilates classes may also be appropriate during pregnancy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Clinical Pilates
Yes, we offer different payment options, including discounted term passes.
Clinical Pilates and reformer Pilates have similarities but differ in focus, application, and purpose. Clinical Pilates is prescribed and supervised by professionals such as our certified Pilates instructors, and is tailored to address individual needs and injuries while aiding in injury rehab and improving physical function.
Using dedicated equipment, Reformer Pilates is designed to build strength, flexibility, and stability, typically for general fitness rather than rehabilitation.
The frequency of Clinical Pilates sessions is a personal choice, though we typically recommend beginning with one or two sessions per week. Your ideal schedule may vary depending on fitness level, injuries, or specific needs, and you can adjust as you build strength, flexibility, and balance.
