Clinical Pilates is structured exercise based on Pilates principles, supervised by a physiotherapist and adapted to your specific situation. It's commonly used for core strengthening, post-surgical rehabilitation, chronic-pain management, and general conditioning. Available at all three of our clinics. To book, call (03) 9746 6852 or book online.
For general public information, see healthdirect Australia's physical activity guidance.
Who clinical Pilates may suit
- People recovering from back, neck or limb injuries who need structured strengthening
- Post-surgical patients progressing from initial rehab to longer-term conditioning

How clinical Pilates differs from a Pilates class
Clinical Pilates at 101 Physio is led by a physiotherapist, who designs each session for the participant's specific clinical needs. It uses Pilates principles and equipment but is integrated into your wider physiotherapy plan rather than being a generic group class. Group sizes are small and individualised.
