Pilates & Exercise Classes
Instructors
The experienced instructors at Precision Health Care are university qualified Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists (EP) and have additional certification through the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute.
The combination of these qualifications and experience enables the instructors at Precision Health Care to accurately design programs for a variety of conditions, from injury rehabilitation to post natal recovery, and from elite performance to general fitness and wellbeing. In our Exercise Classes instructors often use exercises and techniques drawn from Pilates designed to best benefit our clients and their individual needs.
The Instructors at Precision Health Care have the appropriate training and qualifications to diagnose and understand musculoskeletal injuries and conditions, therefore appropriate and safe programs be devised and adapted to ensure optimal outcomes.

Wear comfortable exercise clothing to each session. Shoes are not required in Pilates, but please wear socks.
Class Passes
Class pass options are available, providing a discounted rate for classes. These passes have a 3-month duration, enabling them to be used over a period convenient to you.
If you are new to our Exercise Classes it is recommended that you complete at least five Level 1 FX classes before progressing to RX classes. Once mastered correctly, enormous benefits can be experienced. We advise you take your time to properly learn any Pilates-based exercises rather than rushing to progress a class level.

Individual Assessments and Exercise Programs:

-
A program of exercised-based interventions specific to the patient. In group sessions this includes adjusting the group program for individuals as required. In both groups and classes, the exercises should address a current health problem.
