Gentle and holistic approach to enhancing your overall wellbeing

Pilates

What Is Pilates?

Pilates is a form of exercise pioneered in the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates.  It is great for strengthening and toning deep muscles such as your core.  Typically it is performed on a mat using either bodyweight or simple pieces of equipment such as resistance bands, balls, foam rollers, light weights and pilates rings.  The exercises are performed with the following principles in mind: breathing, concentration, control, centring, precision and flow.  Along with benefits to your physical health such as improved strength and flexibility,  it also benefits your mental health thanks to the mindfulness approach.

How Can Pilates Benefit You?

  • Improved physical strength and flexibility: particularly core strength.
  • Improves balance and posture.
  • Pain Relief: By strengthening muscles you can improve posture and encourage muscles to work as designed.
  • Stress Reduction: The slow movements whilst concentrating and focusing on breath calms the nervous system.
  • Emotional Wellbeing: Exercise releases endorphins and feel good hormones.
  • Improved Sleep: Exercise promotes good nourishing sleep.

Is Pilates Right For You?

Pilates is great for everyone from elite athletes to those recovering from injury.  It is a strong mind body approach which makes it particularly good for recovering from chronic pain.  Anyone wanting to improve muscle tone, flexibility and strength can benefit from Pilates.

Testimonials That Speak Volumes

  • I can only say good things about Pilates with Katie. She certainly puts us through our paces but also makes it enjoyable as well as beneficial, nothing is too much trouble for her while dealing with us ladies of a certain age, who are not quite as flexible as we were. She has given me advice on how to manage my painful shoulder which I feel has helped a great deal.
    I have today been for a check up on my arthritic hip and told to carry on with Pilates, and if possible try to do it at least twice a week, so the results speak for themselves.

  • It is a pleasure to be treated by Katie and to be given helpful tips and tricks to aide recovery and deal with my pain. I am proving a hard nut to crack but I'm relieved to say I have improved. It's a great feeling to be warm and relaxed during treatment and to know that someone cares about you.

Two months on from treatment I am back to my normal self. Thank you so much Katie you truely are a gifted and lovely human being.

  • Katie's BEAT pain programme has had a significant impact on me in such a short amount of time. In just 6 weeks, I reduced my inflammatory score by 50%, I am no longer struggling with pain every day, I am no longer feeling physically sick everyday, my hair has stopped falling out, I lost 4kg without really trying and I am welcoming joy back into my life. I hadn't realised how all my symptoms were connected to my body being so inflamed and causing pain. Learning more about the link between the gut, food and pain has been so helpful. Katie is like a trusted friend who understands what I've been going through (having had first hand experience herself) and doesn't judge, but provides practical tips for making small incremental changes, based on lots of knowledge and insight. If you ask a question, she is always able to provide lots of information and additional resources to support understanding.
    Having been at such a loss on what to do to help myself and reduce my pain, I strongly recommend Katie's BEAT programme for anyone struggling with chronic pain.
