We use myofascial release, joint mobilisations, soft tissue work and Kinesio-taping alongside the provision of a clear, goal centred home exercise programme. This unique combination of skills and experience allows me to assess your injury or condition and adapt your rehabilitation to work towards your tailored goals.

CLINICAL PILATES

Clinical Pilates is a variation of Traditional Pilates, continually shaped and advanced by current best practice guidelines. It is designed for people experiencing health issues, pain and for rehabilitation following injury or surgery.  Generally delivered in a 1:1 setting or small groups, pilates exercises are adapted to the appropriate level for you and your pain and progressed when possible and tolerated.  Sessions with Naomi allow you to feel and understand the strengths and weaknesses in your body and how this could be contributing to pain and dysfunction.  Clinical Pilates creates balance between muscle groups, lengthening short muscles and strengthening long muscles and encouraging optimum function throughout the body.

PILATES REFORMER

A Pilates Reformer looks like a single bed with sliding carriage and variable resistance springs.  For those who are unable to exercise in standing it allows painful joints to be strengthened safely.  You can sit, stand, lie or kneel allowing a plethora of exercises. 

PHYSIO BY VIDEO

What is Telehealth?

I have years of experience in telephone triage for the NHS so I am able to deliver the same great outcomes using a video-based programme. Evidence confirms that these consultations provide the same, if not better, outcomes for patients and include comprehensive home exercise prescription and monitoring.

How can it be just as good?

Experienced clinicians are taught to rely on initial questioning to diagnose our patient’s condition. Physical assessment is then simply used to prove themselves wrong or right and often only requires 2-4 tests. A lot of these tests are functional such as a squat which is very visible on a laptop screen.

And for the treatment?

Although I can’t put my hands on you and release off those tight, sore muscles during treatment a good physiotherapist will be talking you through lifestyle adaptations and mutually deciding the best path forwards. Following treatment, we then teach you the best possible movements that will ease your pain and prevent it coming back in the long term. All of these things we can still do online.
