Performance Pilates Studio at Centro Health - Innovative Physiotherapy & Pilates Rehabilitation

---

Audrey has developed a comprehensive Pilates Rehabilitation Program using a motor-learning approach to correct inefficient or faulty movement habits that contribute to neck and back pain, poor posture, inflexibility and weakness.

Our innovative program targets the pelvic floor and deep stabilising muscles of the trunk and incorporates efficient breathing techniques. This ensures that the spine is adequately supported while promoting safe, economical movement of the entire body and relieving pain.

We use specially designed, spring loaded Pilates equipment to progress exercises to challenge muscular control, strength and dynamic stability, fully integrating movement of the spine with the limbs to achieve optimal performance.

Our program of specific movements and low impact exercises is the answer to maintaining results long term.
