Osana integrates Pilates such as Matwork and Reformer into their physiotherapy sessions.
Pilates is an effective way for children to learn functional movement patterns. Exercises are incorporated into physiotherapy sessions based on the child’s needs and goals.
Osana uses Pilates with our clients to assist with hypermobility, low muscle tone, muscle imbalances, rehabilitation post injuries, scoliosis, delayed development and general strength and stability. We can start as young as 3 years of age.
Matwork sets the foundation and technique to engage targeted postural muscles to provide trunk and pelvic stability. Once the foundations are set then we progress to the Reformer.
The Reformer is an excellent way to build strength and stabilise pelvic and postural muscles that are required for dynamic usage such as gait, running, jumping, sport demands and reduce injury risk.
If you would like further information about Pilates or if this would suit your child, please send an enquiry or book now for appointment.
