Clinical Pilates Sandringham

Clinical Pilates

Our 60-minute Clinical Pilates classes use a variety of adjustable spring-assisted equipment and exercises for progressive challenges of loading, movement control and balance.

With no more than 4 clients per class, your teacher will personally guide you through a tailored program of meaningful exercises to support your fitness and assist with injury prevention and rehabilitation.

It’s personal. It’s exclusive. It’s what your mind and body needs.

Dial up or down the intensity to suit your goals using our specialised equipment including the Pilates reformer, Pilates Cadillac trapeze table, Pilates Wunda chair, Pilates Ladder barrel, Pilates arcs and more.

Community Classes

We understand that quality health and wellness care isn’t accessible to everyone. That’s why we offer a FREE movement class every single week. These are mat-based classes led by any one of our experienced teachers with emphasis on diverse, functional, high quality movement. The use of small props is commonly used in these classes.

Mats and equipment are supplied by our studio. Please feel free to bring a small towel and a drink bottle if you wish.

These classes are limited to 10 people per class, ensuring that participants are seen and cared for by the leader of the class. Bookings are essential and can be done so online by the booking form below.

New to the Bodytech Sandringham Pilates studio & Osteo clinic?

Before participating in our Clinical Pilates classes, an initial 1:1 assessment with an experienced practitioner is required in order to gauge strengths, pain points and improvements that are specific to your body.

This forms the basis for your personalised program, so you can progress at your own pace. A home exercise prescription can also be provided to maximise the effects of your Clinical Pilates training.

  • Apart from a positive attitude and open mind, you don’t need to bring a thing!

  • Wear clothes that you are comfortable to move around in (no skirts or dresses please). We recommend gym tights, leggings or shorts and either a t-shirt or singlet top.

    For hygienic purposes we please ask that you wear socks when using the Pilates studio equipment. We also sell grippy pilates socks at reception so you can totally look the part!

Classes

  • Be sure to book your class times ahead to ensure you get the class times that suit your schedule. Feel free to reach out to us via phone or email and we will do our best to accommodate you.

  • We understand that life gets in the way. If you’re late, that’s cool! If you come in late please do so respectfully of other students. Your practitioner will do their best to ensure you get the most out of the remaining time in your session.

  • You can absolutely reschedule your class by changing your time through our online booking system or by contacting the Bodytech Sandringham Pilates studio & Osteo clinic via email at info@bodytechosteo.com.au.

    Please be mindful of our class cancellation windows. We require 6 hours notice before your class time. If your class starts prior to 7am, a 12 hour window applies. You will be debited a class from your class pack if cancellations occur within these windows.

    For more information, please refer to our Cancellation Policy here.

Bookings & Cancellations

  • Absolutely not.

  • Unfortunately not. Regrettably the health funds don’t provide benefits to those individuals in group classes when the class is delivered by an Osteopath. The Osteopathy Australia association is continually lobbying to change this, so watch this space!

    Your initial movement assessment (which is classified as an Initial Osteopathy consultation) is rebatable with private health.

  • No. As per the same reason for clinical pilates classes.

Referrals & Claims

  • Clinical Pilates is a form of movement therapy that uses specialised Pilates studio equipment including the Pilates reformer bed, Pilates Cadillac trapeze table, Pilates Wunda chair, Pilates Ladder barrel, Pilates arcs and other small props.

    The Clinical Pilates classes are designed so that students are guided by their teacher through a program of movement-based exercises specific to their body. This means that everyone in the class is working independently as opposed to moving together (as per the Clinical Mat classes).

  • Your individual goals form the basis of the benefits. Benefits differ from person to person, based on what they are working towards. To name a few:

    • Rehabilitation from injury

    • Prehabilitation for injury prevention

    • Increased postural awareness and strength

    • Increased flexibility

    • Increased strength

    • Increased mobility

    • Greater efficiency in compound movement patterns (eg squats, hip hinges, pushing, pulling etc)

    • Replication of functional movement patterns (eg. if you play a sport or have a hobby, we can break down and replicate the actions within that sport and/or hobby)

  • The word ‘clinical’ implies that your teacher takes into consideration any injuries, ailments, strengths and weaknesses that are specific to your body. Your program is tailored for your body.

    The exercises and/or movements between both clinical and traditional pilates are the same/similar, it is the way in which they are applied to the individual which is where the difference lies.

  • If you’re not flexible, great! Perhaps it can be a focus or goal of your Clinical Pilates practice.

    If you are flexible, that’s cool too! Working on your strength will assist you in ensuring your flexibility comes with stability.

  • Please bear in mind that these classes are not fitness-based classes. Clinical movement classes are designed to educate and allow you the space to explore your body. We strongly recommend a minimum of 1x class per week to ensure you maintain consistency. This is in addition to any of your regular physical activity that you do outside of the clinic.

  • Clinical Pilates is a great, low-impact movement option both prenatally and postnatally. Of course, every pregnancy is different so your practitioner will be sure to go through anything and everything with you.

    If you are unsure, getting medical clearance from your general practitioner/obstetrician is recommended.

Clinical Pilates

  • Yoga at Bodytech is delivered in small group classes delivered on the mat +/- small props. With no more than 10 people per class and an emphasis on education, the movement delivered in these classes is suitable for people with all levels of experience. Your teacher will ensure that any specific injuries and/or ailments you may be dealing with are considered with each and every movement taught.

  • Yoga classes work towards the same benefits as clinical pilates including:

    • Increased strength

    • Increased flexibility

    • Increased mobility

    • Increased body awareness

    These classes are also great for those who enjoy doing stretches and exercises at home. Given that minimal equipment is used, you’re sure to find some that you can take away with you… and it won’t even cost you any extra!
