The Biomechanical Model
You are probably wondering, what’s this?
Let me explain,
I start by getting your body biomechanically sound (In complete alignment)
This means your body is working the way it should do, how it was designed to work.
If your body is not in alignment, which applies to lots of people, you are going to suffer injury and pain.
Normalise Stabilise
I do this by ensuring your pelvic and spinal movements are ‘normalised’ and so provide the building blocks for normal movement.
In this first phase any muscle imbalances are eradicated, nerve mobility issues sorted out and any muscle spasm reduced. (It’s going to help you feel better!)
This phase is referred to as 'Before the Core', because typically people will start their early exercise programmes with core stability-type exercises and they are simply not ready!
That is why Pilates helps some people and hurts others.
Why would we want to stabilise someone in a biomechanically incorrect position?
So I 'Normalise' them first, then ‘Stabilise’ them second followed by ‘Functionalise’
Functionalise
If we are not careful all we are doing is training people to compensate for their biomechanical problems, rather than training correct movement patterns!
So, once the Normalise phase has been completed you will then progress to the next stage, which gives you the ability to consolidate and learn new strategies in the Stabilisation phase.
You will progress through a series of isolated stability exercises and then work towards more functional stability patterns.
The final phase (Functionalise) is where I coach you to create new strategies in a more functional way and then progress them.
Whether a professional athlete, a keen recreational sports enthusiast, or simply working on a production line, intrinsic biomechanical factors can have a major impact on your potential risk of injury.
