Pilates Helped My Scoliosis

Thank you Shelbourne Studio for helping me deal with my scoliosis! I am so happy that I found you. I feel more confident in my abilities and stronger from the Pilates exercises. Every week I am seeing progress which gives me hope for the future since I do not want surgery or a bulky brace.

Pilates, taught on the Reformer. A wonderful addition to anyone’s exercise regimen, increasing strength, stretching bodies that are suppressed by gravity and age, and helping with balance. Pilates, as taught by Chantelle Shah-Poulin and Chris Csak, is a great experience. Both are immensely knowledgeable, are serious about their roles as instructors, challenge you to get better, and always – always – provide encouragement. We feel fortunate to be on the receiving end of their commitment.

I have been attending both Mat and Reformer classes at Shelbourne Physio and Pilates for over a year now, and have always found the studio to be bright, clean, airy and well maintained. The support staff are very helpful and cheery. The Pilates Instructors are professional and highly competent and a pleasure to work with. I have no hesitation in recommending this facility to anyone interested in beginning or improving their Pilates practice.

Being a devout Pilates client I wish to thank the teachers who have helped me develop the strength in my left knee which due to injury suffered a complete tear of the ACL. Three years later when I finally saw a specialist he did not believe the MRI report that I have a severed ACL..Thanks to Pilates even the specialists are fooled.
