Clinical Pilates at Advantage Healthcare

Clinical Pilates is a physio-guided exercise approach that combines strength, control, mobility and breathing to help you move better and feel stronger. Sessions are tailored to your body and goals, with close supervision and clear progressions so you can build confidence safely, whether you’re recovering from injury, managing persistent pain, or returning to training.

Clinical Pilates physiotherapy is included in our Clinical Rehabilitation Classes as needed for our patients.

What Pilates Physiotherapy Can Help With

We help with a wide range of sports and gym-related injuries, from sudden strains and sprains to persistent overuse pain that keeps flaring up. Your appointment includes a thorough assessment to identify what’s really driving the problem, then a tailored rehabilitation plan with clear home exercises and progression milestones.

Back and neck pain

Improve spinal control, trunk strength and movement habits that often drive recurring pain, with exercises scaled to your current tolerance.

Postnatal recovery and pelvic stability

Injury rehabilitation and recurring flare-ups

Address strength deficits and control patterns that keep injuries returning, with a structured plan that progresses week to week.

Joint stability and hypermobility

Build control, endurance and strength around “looser” joints, improving confidence with everyday tasks and exercise.

Hip, knee and lower limb loading

Develop strength and capacity for squatting, stairs, running and jumping, with focus on technique and graded exposure to load.

Shoulder and upper body strength

Restore shoulder blade control, rotator cuff strength and thoracic mobility for pressing, pulling, overhead work and sport.

Reformer Pilates

The reformer is a popular piece of Pilates equipment used in both in rehabilitation and in popular group Pilates classes. The reformer is essentially a board that slides on rails with a foot bar for you to push off from as you are lying on the board. There are also straps attached to the reformer, that when you pull on these with either your hands or feet the whole board slides.

These are only two methods among a wide variety of exercises that can be performed on the reformer. You can kneel on the reformer with your hands resting on the foot bar as you maintain a stable core as you slide the carriage with your knees. You could also stand on the reformer as you practice going in and out of the splits. The reformer is so useful that many Pilates studios or clinics only have reformers in their studio and are able to give you a good full body workout.

Caddillac/Trap Table

The Caddillac or Trap Table is another piece of popular Pilates equipment. The Trap Table is a firm bed with a strong supporting frame around the outside that springs and bars are able to be attached to, creating challenging resistance for your body.

The Caddillac also excels in targeting core stability and balance. Many exercises require maintaining balance while moving the limbs, which can work the core intensely. The Caddillac can also be used as a low-impact workout, making it ideal for those returning from injury or recovering from surgery.

It can be used with the patient lying down on their back, side or front. The patient can also be on their knees or standing to work a whole variety of different movements or muscles.

Wunda Chair

The Wunda Chair or Pilates Chair as it’s sometimes known is a box with a padded top and adjustable spring-loaded pedals. The Wunda Chair is a useful tool for strengthening legs, hips, feet and arms. It’s also great to help with scapular control and stability.

The Wunda Chair can be used in seated and standing positions to work the legs differently, however it can also be used while lying on your side to work your obliques or on your front to work your back and scapular stabilisers.

The Wunda Chair can also be used to challenge your balance, working your leg and core stability muscles and coordination as you work against the resistance of the springs

Advantage Healthcare & Physiotherapy's goal is to provide the highest quality care possible to the Wynnum, Manly, Brisbane Bayside residents.
