Physiotherapy at StudioS
Physiotherapy at StudioS is focused on the use of reformer pilates as a rehabilitation tool.
What We Offer
An initial physiotherapy session at StudioS provides dedicated time to discuss your full medical history, current injury, symptoms, or exercise-related concerns. Your physiotherapist will carry out a detailed movement assessment to identify any limitations, imbalances, or contributing factors affecting your performance, recovery, or overall wellbeing.
Using this information, we will develop a personalised plan tailored to your individual goals and needs. As a physiotherapy-led Reformer Pilates studio, our focus is on movement assessment, rehabilitation, exercise prescription, and long-term injury management through targeted Pilates-based interventions.
Please note that we do not provide hands-on soft tissue treatment or manual therapy at StudioS, as it is a physio-led reformer pilates studio.
Common conditions we see
-
Physio-led Reformer Pilates offers an effective alternative to traditional physiotherapy by combining expert clinical knowledge with targeted, movement-based rehabilitation. Using the Reformer as a rehabilitation tool, we create proactive and progressive programmes designed to support your recovery and help you achieve long-term results.
Sessions focus on improving strength, addressing muscle imbalances, increasing joint mobility, and enhancing movement quality, all with the aim of helping you return to your everyday activities, exercise, and sport with confidence.
We regularly work with clients experiencing a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including lower back pain, upper back and neck pain, postural related discomfort, shoulder injuries, hip pain, knee pain, and many other movement related issues.

Reformer Pilates is an excellent rehabilitation tool following surgery, helping you regain strength, mobility, and confidence in a safe and controlled environment. Whether you are recovering from a joint replacement, orthopaedic procedure, abdominal surgery, or another operation, sessions can be tailored to your individual needs, stage of recovery, and current ability.
A key benefit of the Reformer is its versatility. While carefully rehabilitating the surgical site, we can often continue working on other areas of the body to maintain overall strength, mobility, and fitness throughout your recovery. This helps to keep you moving, support your rehabilitation goals, and promote a smoother return to daily activities.

“Sessions with Sophie have been a complete game changer for me. I was a complete Pilates novice when I started and had multiple issues and injuries. Sophie’s skill and strength as a reformer led physio has ensured that every session is not only bespoke but targeted towards rehabilitation and strengthening weaknesses. Sophie is encouraging, supportive and kind, all of which have been extremely important qualities when it comes to transitioning from being a beginner to becoming more controlled and confident. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been and look forward to every session! Sophie is brilliant..”
