Original post taken from Kent Online: Aligned Osteopathy & Reformer Pilates can help you improve your core strength and flexibility
Whether you are recovering from an injury or just looking to improve your overall health, Reformer Pilates is the perfect exercise for people of all abilities and ages.
That’s why Aligned Osteopathy & Pilates in Allington, Maidstone offers Reformer Pilates classes.
Through regularly doing a series of controlled low-impact movements and poses in an air-conditioned and light-filled studio, you can improve your posture and muscular strength, and increase your flexibility, co-ordination and balance. The moves, which are done using a Reformer machine, enabling you to stretch further and more easily, can also be used to rehabilitate injuries, reduce stress and back pain, and gain awareness and mindfulness of your body.
You can choose between 1:1 or small group sessions, each personalised to help you achieve your health and fitness goals. Delivered by the team of qualified Reformer Pilates instructors, classes are available throughout the week. Classical and rehabilitation Pilates classes are also available.
Osteopathy treatment is another key offering. Through a combination of movement, stretching, targeted deep tissue massage, and manipulation of the muscles and joints, the team of fully qualified and General Osteopathic Council registered osteopaths, who have more than 23 years’ combined experience, can help patients to improve their function, relieve their pain and aid recovery.
By understanding the patient’s symptoms, medical history and lifestyle, they will be given an accurate diagnosis and a treatment plan to help them achieve the best outcome. Techniques that are commonly used include soft tissue massage, Cranial Osteopathy, joint/spinal manipulation, medical acupuncture, exercise prescription for injury prevention and rehabilitation, and postural, pelvic and spinal alignment treatment.
With a keen interest in sports injuries, paediatrics, women’s health, arthritis, and aches and pains, the team can provide a whole range of treatments including cranial osteopathy and working with pregnant women, new mums and babies. Aligned Osteopathy also provides Pink Ribbon Program post operation breast cancer treatment to help patients get the movement back in their bodies.
The studio is easily accessible by car, bus or train. It’s only a short walk from Barming train station and there is free parking outside and on the surrounding roads.
