Pilates is a method of exercise that evenly conditions the body. It stretches and strengthens all the muscles giving the body a well-defined shape and targets the deep "core" muscles that are so important for good posture.The method concentrates the mind and encourages correct breathing to increase lung capacity and blood circulation. It improves bone density and promotes good joint mobility. It ensures that the right muscles in the body do the right job, thus correcting faulty movement patterns. Pilates dramatically increases core strength and when practised regularly it will produce incredible benefits for your body.Intelligent exercising - What differentiates Pilates from other forms of exercise is that it is based on a deep understanding of how the skeletal and muscular framework of the body works. It is therefore extremely safe and beneficial to those with back problems, sports injuries, pre or post-natal as well as those who are 100% fit and want to stay that way.The growth in its popularity is testimony to how enormously effective the method is. Highly recommended by health professionals, it is considered the way forward for rehabilitation and general well-being, whatever your age, as well as the ultimate workout for those who want to greatly improve flexibility, strength and tone.

Health Kinesiology (HK) is a specific branch of kinesiology developed in the 1970’s, which uses muscle testing/monitoring combined with verbal questioning as a means of communicating with a person’s energy system and determining what the body needs in order to restore balance and wellbeing. A wide range of different procedures are available and muscle testing is used to identify the priority order so as to ensure a smooth healing process. Commonly used procedures include the use of magnets, crystals, flower essences, essential oils or the client may be asked to focus on specific thoughts or phrases to help alleviate limiting beliefs/fearful thought patterns. HK can also be used to test for and re-balance BioEnergetic disturbances that occur in reaction to particular substances (or allergens), such as specific foods, chemicals, pollens etc. Sometimes muscle testing identifies lifestyle changes (eg to the diet or work/home environment) that are needed to help support the healing process. HK is a gentle and natural system that is suitable for all ages, from babies to the elderly and also during pregnancy. Its holistic approach of attending to imbalances on all levels: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual make it a powerful system for healing.

The initial assessment and each subsequent treatment session lasts approximately 30 minutes.
