We align, we stretch and we strengthen you to a pain-free body using a combination of Pilates and GYROTONIC® while incorporating manual therapy, energy therapy and modalities such as electrical stimulation, ultrasound and light therapy when needed. You will not only understand the root of your pain and destructive patterns, but will have the tools to prevent further injury. All evaluations are with Gina Calderone, MPT.
Pilates
Pilates is a method of exercise developed by German-born Joseph Pilates. In 1926, Joseph and Clara Pilates brought their exercise system, originally called “Contrology”, to New York City. The Pilates method is a physical movement program designed to stretch, strengthen, and balance the body. Pilates exercise focuses on postural symmetry, breath control, abdominal strength, spine, pelvis and shoulder stabilization, muscular flexibility, joint mobility and strengthening through the complete range of motion of all joints. Instead of isolating muscle groups, the whole body is trained, integrating the upper and lower extremities with the trunk. Centripetal Force Studio uses Pilates to cultivate the awareness necessary for understanding the body’s messages. We teach and encourage a conscious choice to become aware, joining your mental connection to the core of your emotions, energy; spirit...it's a mind and body collaboration.
“Contrology develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and elevates the spirit.”
Joseph H. Pilates
