Welcome to Mat Movement – Townsville City
Mat Movement is a Pilates rehabilitation experience.
Mat Movement is a holistic form of exercise-based treatment which is specific to the individual. Movement treatment can assist with rehabilitating injury, and preventing future injury/pain.
At TPM Townsville, Mat Movement is a form of Pilates which focuses on posture, core strengthening, focus, balance, control, strength, breathing, and flexibility. We use movement in combination with Physiotherapy and Chiropractic to help you recover from injury or post surgery. This is particularly effective in relieving or eliminating chronic low back pain by strengthening and retraining your core and stabilising muscles to support your spine and posture in the way that it should.
What is the difference between Mat Movement and regular Pilates?
Mat movement essentially takes a more personalised approach to treatment. Exercises are specific to your individual needs (as determined by our professional Physiotherapists). This form of movement will adapt and change to suit your level and abilities. If injuries become aggravated through exercise, then the program will adapt to your current physical abilities. The goal of Mat movement is to help activate the specific muscles in your body that will bring the biggest rewards, namely fast and safe recovery and a return to full physical capacity.
Rather than giving a general exercise program our Mat Movement instructor applies her knowledge and training to provide a tailored program which targets specific muscles. Our Townsville Movement trainer will understand from working with you exactly what your body needs and prescribe an exercise program that gets to the core of the problem.
Who is Mat Movement Townsville for?
TPM Mat Movement can be beneficial for anyone recovering from injury, pre and post birth, struggling with a nagging pain or Chronic condition.
General Pilates classes may not always be the most appropriate activity for certain injuries and unique personal needs. Performing exercises that are not appropriate for your injuries or physical condition may put you at further risk of injury or aggravation your existing trauma. At TPM, before you begin Mat Movement classes or programs, you will have an initial appointment with a professional Physiotherapist to understand which exercises are going to help you and which you need to stay away from. Our Mat Movement Physiotherapist is an experts in understanding how training deals with injury and healing.
