Postnatal Pilates Classes at Physio Effect

We are very excited to announce that we are starting our very popular Crybaby Postnatal Pilates classes again in our Pilates studio within our Northside clinic in Borron Street. This is our physiotherapy-led rehabilitation class for new mums.

Due to the current Covid guidelines and to maintain social-distancing protocols, we are having smaller sized classes with a maximum of 6 participants only.

To join this class, you must be a minimum of 6 weeks postpartum if you had a straightforward vaginal delivery/8 weeks after a C-section or assisted vaginal delivery with any other complications (which can be discussed at your initial postnatal physiotherapy appointment).


NEW CLASS STARTING!

Mondays at 12noon

Duration: 1 hour

The next block will begin on MONDAY 30TH NOVEMBER 2020

Please get in touch below if you would like to sign up. Spaces are limited!


HOW DO I GET STARTED?

If you are starting our classes for the first time since having your baby, you will be required to have a 1:1 Postnatal Physiotherapy Appointment with one of our physiotherapists and you must be a minimum of 6 weeks postpartum for this to take place. This is a pre-screening appointment where you will also be able to discuss your pregnancy, labour and set some goals you’d like to achieve after having your baby. The physiotherapist will assess your pelvic floor and abdominal function and go over some basic, fundamental exercises in preparation to starting the classes. This appointment will take up to 45 minutes.


HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

  • Physiotherapy Postnatal Appointment: £49 (you must be a minimum of 6 weeks postpartum)

  • 6-week block: £75


CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) SAFETY PROCEDURES

  • The class size will be smaller than usual to allow adequate social distancing (maximum of 6 participants).

  • Please bring your own mat to the class as well as a mat (and toys) for your baby to lay next to you or they may remain in their carseat next to you. Buggies will have to be left in our reception area outside the studio to allow for more space.

  • Pilates equipment such as circles, balls, bands, weights etc. will be provided for the class with strict cleaning measures in place before and after use.

  • A face-mask/covering is required to enter and leave the building and Pilates studio. Once you are allocated your floor space in the studio, you may remove your mask for the duration of the class if you wish.

  • Hand sanitising gel is provided for entering and leaving the building.

  • Unfortunately, the EDA Gym lounge area is closed for use however the Coorie Cafe is located in the 100 Borron Street Business Park above the gym which has delicious food, good coffee and outdoor seating. They have also very kindly offered to reserve a space for you all to have a chat and lunch after the class!
