Pilates
Welcome To Chapman Physiotherapy
Pilates is delivered on a one to one basis by Lizzy Alcock at the Doncaster practice Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and at Bawtry on a Monday morning. Trained with the APPI which is the leading provider of physio-led pilates, Lizzy is a physiotherapist and Pilates teacher who can give you the personalised coaching to ensure that you get the most out of the session. Pilates is £35 for 45 minutes. Pilates can be booked online.
The Pilates method is essentially a mind-body centring technique that emphasizes the importance of beginning movement from a central core of stability, namely the lower back and pelvis. Exercises aim to strengthen, mobilise and stretch muscles to correct muscle imbalances caused by habit, posture and movement abnormalities. Often when we have a weakness in a certain area, we compensate or over-develop another area to achieve a certain functional movement. Correcting these abnormal movement patterns can achieve a greater sense of well-being, posture, confidence and even skill level within your chosen sport.
It is a relatively new technique, having only started in the 20th century by Joseph Pilates, hence its name.
For those of you who aren’t sure if Pilates is for you – why not pop down and book a one-off session? We’re pretty sure you’ll love it, but if you decide it’s not for you there’s absolutely no commitment. Likewise; if it’s something you’d love to try but can’t commit to a regular slot – that’s no problem either. There’s plenty of app based workouts you can follow at home and whilst it’s no comparison to face to face; it’s certainly a way to keep focusing between sessions.
Pilates has become so popular recently, it’s the perfect antidote to our stressful lives and long periods of poor posture whether sat at a desk or driving. The benefits are instantaneous; here’s a few as food for thought:
increased energy
Decreased stress
Improved balance
Improved core
Reduces back pain
Prevents injury
Boots immunity

Strengthens core
