What is Clinical Pilates?
Clinical Pilates is a form of exercise guided by a qualified health professional, designed to support your individual health, movement and rehabilitation goals.
Unlike regular group Pilates classes, our Clinical Pilates sessions are exclusively led by a physiotherapist and focus on an individualised exercise program tailored to your needs, abilities and goals. Exercises may be used to improve strength, stability, posture, balance, body awareness and movement control, as well as part of a rehabilitation program.
Whether you are returning to exercise, working towards specific rehabilitation goals or looking to improve your overall movement, Clinical Pilates provides a supportive environment where you can exercise with professional guidance.
How do the classes work?
Our Clinical Pilates classes are run in small groups of no more than five participants, allowing for individual attention and clinical supervision throughout each session.
- Individualised program: Your exercises are selected and tailored to your needs and goals.
- Professional supervision: Sessions are led by a qualified physiotherapist and Clinical Pilates Instructor.
- Progressive approach: Your program will be reviewed and progressed throughout each six- week block, as appropriate for your needs and progress.
- Supportive environment: You can work on your individual goals while exercising alongside others in a welcoming, small-group setting.
Each participant follows their own program, so exercises and progressions may differ between people in the same class.

Can I claim through private health insurance?
If your private health insurance policy includes physiotherapy extras cover, you may be eligible to claim for Clinical Pilates sessions through your health fund.
Eligibility and rebates vary between health funds and individual policies. We recommend contacting your health fund before booking to confirm whether these sessions are covered, what rebate may apply and whether any conditions or limits apply.
Please note:
- Private health insurance rebates are subject to your individual policy and health fund requirements.
- Claiming eligibility is not guaranteed and may depend on how the service is billed and the provider requirements of your health fund.
- You are responsible for paying the applicable class fees, regardless of whether your health fund provides a rebate.
Booking your place
Before we can book you a place in one of our six-week blocks, you must attend a private 1:1 appointment at our clinic on Bicentennial Road so your physiotherapist can assess that clinical Pilates suits your needs and develop your personalised program to use during your group classes. The cost of this initial appointment is $149 and is claimable through private health insurance (see details below).
Places are limited to five participants per class, so bookings are essential and not interchangeable between blocks.
