Physio-Led Pilates is a comprehensive physical fitness programme in Emsworth, led by experienced Chartered Physiotherapist Melissa. Melissa is trained by the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI), ensuring that the classes are designed with safety and effectiveness in mind. The programme is suitable for both beginners and intermediate levels, providing options for individuals of all fitness levels.

One of the unique aspects of Physio-Led Pilates is the availability of specialist classes for individuals with bone health problems, including osteoporosis. These specialised classes aim to improve bone health, maintain range of movement, increase weight-bearing capacity, and enhance balance to reduce the risk of falls.

The primary goal of Physio-Led Pilates is to help individuals achieve their personal fitness goals. Whether it's recovering from a back injury, improving core strength for other forms of exercise, or enhancing posture, the programme aims to make a lasting impact on participants' overall well-being. Flexibility is emphasised as it plays a vital role in injury prevention, and balance is actively worked on to counteract the natural decline that comes with age.

Pilates, known for its low impact and safe nature, is an ideal exercise method for building core strength and stability. While many may focus on developing superficial abdominal muscles, Physio-Led Pilates emphasises the deeper postural muscles that are attached to the spine. Strengthening these core muscles helps protect the spine from injury and ensures a balanced abdominal strength.

Participants in Physio-Led Pilates have the convenience of exercising at their own pace and in their own time through Youtube videos. The videos are accessible by clicking on a link provided upon subscription and include clear instructions accompanied by relaxing music. All that is needed are an exercise mat, a thin pillow or folded towel, and space to lie down. Each class focuses on different muscle groups, ensuring a well-rounded workout.

For those needing alternatives for specific exercises, Melissa is readily available for contact. The classes can be requested on an individual or regular basis, with each video priced at 8 or a package of 8 videos priced at 48. Before starting the programme, participants will be required to fill in a couple of forms providing contact and health details to ensure the exercises are safe. Rest assured, all personal information will be kept confidential and not shared with any third party.

Physio-Led Pilates offers individuals the opportunity to achieve their personal fitness goals through a comprehensive and accessible programme led by an experienced physiotherapist. With a focus on safety, effectiveness, and convenience, participants can exercise at their own pace from the comfort of their own homes. Emphasising core strength, flexibility, and balance, this programme aims to make a lasting impact on individuals' overall well-being.
