Patient journey
What to expect
Consultation & preparation
Wear comfortable clothing you can move freely in — leggings or shorts and a fitted top work well. Bring grip socks if you have them. If you are continuing from physiotherapy, no separate paperwork is needed; new clients complete a brief intake before their first session. Tell us about any current injury, recent surgery, pregnancy, or medical condition when you book.
During treatment
Aftercare
You will leave each session knowing what to practise between visits, often with a short home programme to reinforce control and build consistency. Progress is reviewed regularly and exercises are adjusted as you improve. If symptoms flare or something feels wrong, we can refer you back to physiotherapy for a hands-on assessment before continuing.

FAQ
Common
questions
How is clinical Pilates different from a regular Pilates class?
Clinical Pilates is physiotherapy-informed and individualised. Janie works from your clinical assessment and tailors every exercise to your diagnosis, movement patterns, and goals. A general studio class follows a set routine for a mixed group. For people recovering from injury, surgery, or long-standing pain, the clinical approach is safer and more targeted.
Do I need a physiotherapy assessment before starting clinical Pilates?
Not always. If you are continuing from physiotherapy at our clinics, Janie works directly from your physio's findings. New clients begin with a movement screen so the programme suits your body. If you have a recent injury, surgery, or undiagnosed pain, we may recommend a physiotherapy assessment first to ensure Pilates is appropriate.
Can clinical Pilates help with back pain?
Yes. Active rehabilitation, including Pilates-based exercise, is part of the management NICE and the NHS recommend for low back pain — staying active and building core strength rather than resting. Clinical Pilates rebuilds spinal stability and movement control. It is best started once acute symptoms have settled, and your physiotherapist can advise on timing.
Is clinical Pilates suitable during pregnancy?
In many cases, yes, but it depends on the stage of pregnancy and your individual circumstances. Some stages and conditions require adapted exercises or GP clearance first. Tell us you are pregnant when booking so Janie can assess suitability, adapt the programme appropriately, and work safely alongside your maternity care team.
