Every January, many of us start the year with a resolution to be fitter and healthier.

Pilates is the ideal exercise to include – whether on it’s own once or twice a week, or as a complement to other exercise.  Why is it so good?

• Core Strength and Stability. At the heart of Pilates is an emphasis on core strength and stability.  Unlike many other exercise regimes, Pilates often engages multiple muscle groups at the same time, creating a strong and stable core.  Not only does this help improve your posture, but it also gives a solid base for overall strength development.
• Mind-Body Connection. Pilates is more than just a physical workout; when performing Pilates exercises you have to really tune in to your body, and focus on breath control and controlled movements.  It makes you aware of your body, how you move and (perhaps) make you aware of any weaknesses.  This focus can be translated to any other activity and everyday life.
• Adaptable for All Fitness Levels and Ages. A great feature of Pilates is that anyone of any age or ability can join in.  We help with this by holding a range of classes including seated classes, gentle classes and general classes.
• Improved Flexibility and Joint Mobility. Pilates moves include dynamic movements and stretches that promote flexibility and joint mobility.  This is crucial for healthy muscles and a healthy spine, and to help prevent injuries.  Pilates exercises are designed to lengthen and strengthen muscles, giving you improved flexibility, increased range of motion, and reduced muscle stiffness.
• Enhanced Posture and Body Awareness. With us all leading more sedentary lifestyles at times, poor posture is becoming more commonplace.   Pilates targets the muscles responsible for maintaining a healthy posture, giving better alignment and spinal health. Through precise movements and body awareness exercises, Pilates helps correct imbalances, reducing the risk of chronic pain and discomfort.

Pilates Options at Corsham Physiotherapy

As you start your fitness journey in 2024, (and we know we are biased!) but we would recommend you consider Pilates.  At our bespoke light and airy Pilates studio based at Corsham Physiotherapy we provide a range of classes, as well as private and personalised individual & couples sessions.  Our smooth and top-grade Pilates reformer is ideal for individuals looking for a fun and different Pilates-based intense full body workout.

We offer a range of classes – see our class page here for times and descriptions.

If you aren’t sure which class is right for you feel free to drop us a line at any time.  Our classes are due to start the week commencing 8th January 2024 and so we look forward to hearing from you and helping you achieve your New Year resolutions!

In the meantime, have a very Merry Christmas!

We would like to wish Brian Simpson a well deserved retirement.  Since his retirement, we have had some of his old clients contact us to see if we offer the same kind of treatment to heal their broken bones.   We use the same kind of equipment as Brian did and are more than happy to treat any kind of fracture with our specialist laser and magnetic energy treatments.

If you have a broken bone that needs healing quickly, then please feel free to get in touch or book in with Simon Barnes, who has decades of experience successfully treating fractures.

There has been snowfall overnight but we are open as usual this morning. The roads immediately around us in Corsham are fairly clear (7.30am) but if you can’t safely get to us for your appointment today then please feel free to cancel – give us a call on 01249 712288 or email hello@corshamphysiotherapy.co.uk

Stay safe & stay warm.
