Physiotherapy
Is the treatment of physical disability or pain by exercise or massage.

Pilates
This is a mind-body exercise technique that aims to train correct body alignment
and muscle balance. The exercises focus on postural symmetry, breathing control,
lumbo pelvic & shoulder stability. Modified Pilates offers specific training for the
“core muscles” sub-maximally and aims to increase the endurance, tone and
strength of these “core muscles” that are essential to providing support for the
spine. In particular, Pilates exercises teach awareness of neutral alignment of the
spine and strengthening the deep postural muscles that support this alignment,
which are important to help alleviate and prevent back pain.

Specific Classes Include:
Pilates classes for back pain
Pilates for MS
Chair based Pilates
Back schools for individuals with back pain.
