Your Physio Pilates Questions Answered
How does mat Pilates differ from reformer Pilates?
What is the difference between reformer Pilates and clinical Pilates?
Reformer Pilates is generally a fitness-based class using reformer machines, often in larger group settings where participants follow the same exercises led by an instructor or screen. It may be a great option for general fitness if you do not have specific pain, injury, or rehabilitation needs.
Clinical Pilates offers a more personalised experience and is usually guided by a physiotherapist in a smaller group setting. At Therapia Sports & Spine, Clinical Pilates classes are kept to a maximum of five people, so your program can be tailored to your injury history, current movement, strength, flexibility, fitness level, and recovery goals. Your program may include a variety of Pilates equipment such as the reformer, multi-chair, trapeze table, ladder barrel, spine corrector, and mat-based exercises.
