Our classes have a maximum of 8 participants and are performed on a spring resistance apparatus called a reformer bed. Our instructors will lead the group through a program of exercises, with modifications for those requiring it. The program includes abdominal exercises, legs and arms in straps, chest exercises, rowing, and seated exercises. Reformer Pilates aims to target the whole body through continuous, precise, controlled movements. These functional exercises engage the core while delivering cardiovascular conditioning. Allow 60 minutes for each class. We have 3 different types of Classes Open Class - For ‘all’ levels. Beginner friendly. Jump Board Class - For ‘all’ levels. Beginner friendly. Dynamic Class- For Intermediates. A more advanced class. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/857b288e-f3b9-4349-a748-e7f24560ce58/39.JPG Pilates Classes - Open Class This class is perfect if you are a beginner to Reformer Pilates. It is suitable for ALL levels of fitness including beginners, those with pre-existing conditions, and pre/postnatal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/74551f00-48fc-4b5a-883b-ae9cb525cc45/10.JPG Pilates Classes - Dynamic Class Recommended for Intermediates or for those that have done Reformer Pilates for six months or more.

In particular, those looking to rehabilitate, recover from an injury, pregnant or postnatal. In a 1:1 Pilates session, your instructor will discuss and guide you through a series of exercises selected to meet your wellness and training goals. Allow 30 minutes for your session. Before beginning at our Studio we recommend booking a 1:1 private session with one of our Pilates Instructors, to properly assess you and understand your needs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/a344d762-c85f-4da2-864c-25db1a93b3f0/32.JPG Pilates Classes - Pregnancy Before you start a class, it is important to remember that each pregnancy is different and these guidelines are only a basic prescription to exercising safely. Always consult your doctor for advice regarding your pregnancy and before getting started. How much you trained pre-pregnancy, any pre-existing health conditions, your age and fitness level will pre-determine what you’ll be able to do in our class. We do not recommend doing Reformer Pilates during your first trimester; weeks 1-12. If you HAVE NOT done Reformer Pilates prior to your pregnancy, we recommend a 1:1 assessment/session with one of our Pilates instructors before commencing our group classes. If you HAVE done Reformer Pilates prior to being pregnant, we ask that you arrive early and have a chat to our Pilates instructor before beginning the class. Our 'Open class' is open to people of 'ALL' levels of fitness, so there will be exercises within the class that won't be suitable for you to do, and an alternate exercise will be given or you will be asked to rest during this time. We recommend Monday + Thursday 10.30am, if these times don’t suit you, you are welcome to join any open class. During our classes, the following should be AVOIDED: Lying flat on your back Lying on your stomach. Abdominal Crunches Rotational movements that collapse the space of the womb. Holding your breath Pushing movements or isometric exercises that cause your abs to bulge or peak outwards. Fast movements. Your centre of gravity just isn’t what it was before. Remember to move slowly on the carriage. Be in your own zone, forget what the person next to you is doing, and move slowly. Rapid changes in position. Be mindful of balance and coordination challenges, as well as changes to blood pressure with rapid changing movements. High impact. We recommend going at an intensity level of no more than 70% of your maximum effort, as well as ensuring pelvic floor safety. Above all else, listen to your body and always consult your doctor! https://www.chiroease.com.au/contact daily 0.75 2025-03-17 https://www.chiroease.com.au/massage daily 0.75 2026-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1622959122462-KIZ8ICGLWIHIOD5N9KN8/image-asset.jpeg Massage - Massage Here at Chiroease we are dedicated to alleviating stress, tension, and muscular pain.

This occurs because massage prompts the release of endorphins – the brain chemicals (neurotransmitters) that produce feelings of well being. Massage also reduces levels of stress hormones. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1622980295173-C9PGK7J0MYNNJFJOI3HM/CWShoot_Content_MikeTarrPhotography-36.jpg Massage - Some of the physical benefits of Massage include: Reduced muscle tension Improved circulation Stimulation of the lymphatic system Reduction of stress hormones Relaxation Increased joint mobility and flexibility Improved skin tone Improved recovery of soft tissue injuries Heightened mental alertness Reduced anxiety and depression https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1624108846516-SYMPWL9VC6CJTFXGPT5H/1.jpg Massage - What is Remedial Massage? A Remedial massage therapist uses systematic assessment and treatment of the muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues of the body, to assist in pain, injury and rehabilitation. To understand how to treat patients, a remedial therapist must know anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology. Remedial massage focuses on parts of the body that require rehabilitation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1624108694824-LDYS7Y6330OERMLF943I/massage+3.jpg Massage - Pricing 1 Hour Massage $110 1/2 Hour Massage $70 Private Health Insurance accepted.

Chiropractic is a physical therapy that utilises a variety of non-drug, non-surgical techniques to promote maximum recovery from any condition that results in pain and limitation of movement. Chiropractors are trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. The skills of a chiropractor can help in a wide range of conditions; from an athlete recovering from a sports injury, to an older person coping with limitations imposed by the aging process. It is the policy of our clinic to help each person understand what has caused their injury and to prevent it from recurring. Our aim is to help you achieve your maximum health potential. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1624104715182-AD5ZOFVXCW4JDQ62LFI3/CWShoot_Content_MikeTarrPhotography-297.jpg Chiropractic - Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT) ‘Diversified’ is one style of Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT). This technique aims to help improve spinal biomechanics by restoring a patient’s normal range of motion and by removing any nervous system interference. A common interference to the nervous system is the twenty-four moving bones of the spinal column. A loss of normal motion or position of these bones may irritate or interfere with the function of the nervous system by disrupting the transmission of nerve impulses. Chiropractors aim to improve nervous system function primarily through chiropractic adjustments. After identifying which spinal bones have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is administered to free any ‘locked up’ joints. The direction, speed, depth and angle that is used is the result of years of experience, practice and a thorough understanding of spinal mechanics. The energy delivered during the thrust may produce a slight “popping” sound from the shifting of gas and fluids in the joints. All joints of the body can be adjusted to help restore proper range of motion. SMT is designed to be as specific, safe and as comfortable as possible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1624104873980-3ZUKJAR2II3LLAKNI166/CWShoot_Content_MikeTarrPhotography-80.jpg Chiropractic - Trigger Point Dry Needling A technique used to treat Myofascial trigger points, taut palpable spots in the muscle, that present pain, muscle tenderness or stiffness. Treatment involves insertion of a needle into the centre of the trigger point that is gentle, safe, and pain free. The use of this simple needling technique has proven most effective in reducing pain, increasing muscle flexibility and strength. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1624104590645-1R54SK2W9832HMGMX4JX/CWShoot_Content_MikeTarrPhotography-88.jpg Chiropractic - Cupping Therapy A treatment in which suction cups are applied to the skin to increase local blood flow and draw toxins to the skin’s surface. Cupping is a safe and non-invasive technique used to treat muscle and joint pain and spasms, particularly in the back, and is thought to stimulate blood circulation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1622910844077-9BJ0GUJ7YV0KMZKI4H57/CWShoot_Content_MikeTarrPhotography-103.jpg Chiropractic - Electrotherapy Electrotherapy and local modalities are used to assist with pain reduction and the natural healing response via an increase in energy (electrical, sound, light, magnetic, temperature). Electrotherapy and local modalities are methods of pain relief or inflammation reduction that can provide relief and stimulation, to allow you to continue moving and functioning as comfortably as possible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1624104770193-0P6W1IRNJWQZQADBNGHK/CWShoot_Content_MikeTarrPhotography-305.jpg Chiropractic - Other techniques we use include: Sports taping Deep tissue massage Exercise Prescription https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1624154007236-7NMCYW4XMKWTSQUDF8ZO/pot+2.jpg Chiropractic Pricing New Patient/Initial Treatment 30min- $110 Subsequent Treatment 15min- $70 Double Appointment 30min- $140 For Medibank insurance card clients only, the service agreement rates are as follows: Initial consultation: $94.

To be able to do what she loves and share it with others, is ultimately why she made the decision to become a Pilates instructor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/1622909439882-MGICANMWHM54ZFT5VPF7/CEHS1766.jpg Meet our Team - Skyla Berkhout Remedial Massage Therapist Skyla studied a Diploma in Remedial Massage and graduated in 2020.

Reformer Pilates Reformer Pilates is a combination of traditional Pilates exercises with the strengthening and toning aspects of circuit training. Our classes have a maximum of 8 participants and are performed on a spring resistance apparatus called a reformer bed. Our instructors will lead the group through a program of exercises, with modifications for those requiring it. The program includes abdominal exercises, legs and arms in straps, chest exercises, rowing, and seated exercises. Reformer Pilates aims to target the whole body through continuous, precise, controlled movements. These functional exercises engage the core while delivering cardiovascular conditioning. Allow 60 minutes for each class. We have 3 different types of Classes Open Class - For ‘all’ levels. Beginner friendly. Jump Board Class - For ‘all’ levels. Beginner friendly. Dynamic Class- For Intermediates. A more advanced class. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/857b288e-f3b9-4349-a748-e7f24560ce58/39.JPG Pilates Caroline Springs - Open Class This class is perfect if you are a beginner to Reformer Pilates.

In particular, those looking to rehabilitate, recover from an injury, pregnant or postnatal. In a 1:1 Pilates session, your instructor will discuss and guide you through a series of exercises selected to meet your wellness and training goals. Allow 30 minutes for your session. Before beginning at our Studio we recommend booking a 1:1 private session, to properly assess you and understand your needs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/8489d96b-669d-47d7-abef-344a421deaa1/DSCF4164.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/a344d762-c85f-4da2-864c-25db1a93b3f0/32.JPG Pilates Caroline Springs - Pregnancy Before you start a class, it is important to remember that each pregnancy is different and these guidelines are only a basic prescription to exercising safely. Always consult your doctor for advice regarding your pregnancy and before getting started. How much you trained pre-pregnancy, any pre-existing health conditions, your age and fitness level will pre-determine what you’ll be able to do in our class. We do not recommend doing Reformer Pilates during your first trimester; weeks 1-12. If you HAVE NOT done Reformer Pilates prior to your pregnancy, we recommend a 1:1 assessment/session with one of our instructors before commencing our group classes. If you HAVE done Reformer Pilates prior to being pregnant, we ask that you arrive early and have a chat to our instructor before beginning the class. Our 'Open class' is open to people of 'ALL' levels of fitness, so there will be exercises within the class that won't be suitable for you to do, and an alternate exercise will be given or you will be asked to rest during this time. During our classes, the following should be AVOIDED: Lying flat on your back Lying on your stomach. Abdominal Crunches Rotational movements that collapse the space of the womb. Holding your breath Pushing movements or isometric exercises that cause your abs to bulge or peak outwards. Fast movements. Your centre of gravity just isn’t what it was before. Remember to move slowly on the carriage. Be in your own zone, forget what the person next to you is doing, and move slowly. Rapid changes in position. Be mindful of balance and coordination challenges, as well as changes to blood pressure with rapid changing movements. High impact. We recommend going at an intensity level of no more than 70% of your maximum effort, as well as ensuring pelvic floor safety. Above all else, listen to your body and always consult your doctor! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60ba208217fe4d1ff6f6bbcc/2c7c1007-b02f-4f64-93a5-511530c6bc92/14.JPG https://www.chiroease.com.au/thank-you-booking-confirmed daily 0.75 2026-03-19
