Clinical Pilates

Clinical Pilates is an individually designed strengthening and stretching program that is receiving world wide recognition for its use in the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries and as effective tool in enhancing general strength, flexibility and function and improving overall well being.
 
Clinical Pilates focuses on improving core stability (strengthening the stomach and back muscles). This increased core stability improves your overall body strength as well as aiding in the recovery of spinal injuries and reducing this risk of injury/re-injury.
 
Pilates is an exercise regime using specific floor based exercises and spring resisted equipment to train and control the body's deep postural muscles whilst focusing on relaxation and breathing to utilise the most effective pathway for normal movement and function.
 
Key areas trained are the deep abdominal and lower back muscles, deep pelvic/hip muscles, and the upper and middle back muscles. The purpose of training these muscles is to provide stability, strength and control to the lower back, pelvic and hip joints, upper back, neck and shoulder regions.
 
At Domain Health we have a fully equipped Pilates and training studio where you will exercise under the supervision of highly experienced Physiotherapists and Pilates instructors. The Pilates exercises focus on your core stability with creative and varied exercises on the floor, fitball and specialised Pilates equipment.
 
 
This is the big difference between our Pilates program and those Pilates classes at gymnasiums. At gyms there are large classes where everyone performs the same exercises, whether they are appropriate for your level of fitness or not. At Domain Health, the program is tailored for each individual at their level of fitness - so you will always receive an appropriate level of exercise for YOU.

In addition to offering superior physiotherapy treatment, Domain Health also prodive a highly professional and experienced maggage therapists who can provide you with an overall sense of well-being, vitality, re-energising and rejuvenating through a variety of massaging techniques.
 
Massage therapy is a key component in sports medicine; it not only relieves aches, pain, strains, soreness, stiffness and injury-related problems, but it also has the powerful effect on relieving tensions and stress from the body.
 
There are various types of massage that can be performed by our highly trained myotherapist and massage therapists at Domain Health Sports and Spinal Clinic:
  • Sports Massage
  • Myotherapy
  • Remedial Massage
  • Deep Tissue/Trigger Point Massage
  • Relaxation Massage
Sports massage
is specifically designed for athletes of all ages and gender. It consists of targeting specific areas to enable the best possible peak performance and endurance. This form of massage reduces musclular tension and heals strained muscles to allow optimal performance and minimizing the risk of injury.
 
Deep tissue massage
releases deep-seated chronic patterns of muscular tension. This form of massage loosens muscle tissues, increases blood and oxygen circulation and promotes greater flexibility and movement.
 
Myotherapy
is the application of a range of physical modalities used in the assessment, treatment and prevention of muscular conditions which may cause myofascial pain and affect human movement. This therapy also aids relaxation, better posture, flexibility, muscle efficiency and overall function.
 
Trigger point therapy
deep/soft tissue massage and stretching, are just a few of the modalities used for this type of therapy. This form of massage alleviates abnormal muscle contractions, alleviates pain and strain, deactivates trigger points and prevents injuries.
