Who is this for?

If you were born with or have developed Scoliosis or significant asymmetries of the spine, and are looking for an individualized or small group training specific to your goals, we think you will find relief with the Scolio-Pilates ® method.

What is a Scolio-Pilates® session like?

 

As an Authorized Scolio-Pilates practitioner, Jeanette will teach you the corrective exercises of Pilates along with the methods of breathing, traction, stretching and strengthening practiced in the Scolio-Pilates method to help you attain relief and improved alignment and symmetry.

Scolio-Pilates ® is based on 4 main components:
1. Elongation
2. Optimized Breathing techniques
3. Movement and re-organization of the spine towards neutral (using passive and active corrections).
4. Strengthening once the above has been achieved.

Your first session will include an assessment of your spine utilizing a scoliometer, reviewing any x-rays or reports you have, discussion of pain levels, activity and goals you want to achieve. You will learn some elongation and breathing techniques in the first session to practice.

After the assessment, most do a series of private lessons and then partner or join a small group class with others working with spinal conditions. Homework is always given to help you create lasting positive change.
