Clinical Pilates Toowoomba

Not just another reformer Pilates class.

Improve pelvic health, relieve chronic pain, enhance posture and mobility

What is Clinical Pilates?

Clinical Pilates is a form of exercise that’s specifically designed for rehabilitation and health recovery.

Unlike large group Pilates classes that focus on general fitness, clinical Pilates tailors exercises to your individual needs and clinical concerns.

It’s an excellent way to move your body if you’re dealing with

pelvic floor dysfunction,
chronic pain
pregnancy niggles
postpartum recovery.

The thing I love most about clinical Pilates is that it’s low-impact, adaptable, and focused on restoring strength and mobility in a safe, controlled manner.

And it’s a great form of exercise for all levels from beginner to advanced.

How Clinical Pilates can help you

Pilates for Pelvic Health

Pelvic floor issues like incontinence, prolapse, or pelvic pain are more common than you might think.
Through clinical Pilates, I help you target and strengthen the muscles that support your pelvic region, not just your pelvic floor.
Pilates for Persistent Pain

Living with chronic pain often means living in fear of movement. And no one wants that!
Clinical Pilates helps reset your body and brain to move with less pain and more confidence.
Pregnancy & Postpartum

Pregnancy and the postpartum period bring big changes to your body. Both literally and figuratively!
Clinical Pilates is a fantastic, low-impact way to keep your body strong and balanced during these times.
Posture & Biomechanics

Poor posture or imbalanced movement patterns can contribute to pain and other issues over time.
Using clinical Pilates and corrective exercise methods, I help you find a way to move that feels good in your body.

How I use clinical Pilates at Ebb & Flow

I create highly personalised Pilates plans

At Ebb & Flow, each client starts with a detailed assessment before starting their clinical Pilates sessions.

This gives me a full picture of your health and movement patterns, which allows me to design a program specifically for you.

And it’s a great opportunity to get to know each other!

I also want you to know that while there’s no such thing as TMI, I always want you to feel safe, listened to and ready, when sharing your story.

Working together in a health and wellness capacity is like building a friendship. It takes time to get to know each other and for me to fully understand your circumstances and your movement patterns.

It’s not about quick fixes—it’s about creating lasting change.

I use Pilates equipment in a way that suits every body

Pilates equipment is incredible!

When Joseph Pilates invented it several decades ago he knew what he was doing. And the design hasn’t changed much in that time.

The equipment I use in my clinic is specifically designed to provide adjustable resistance, making it ideal for strengthening and providing support for rehabilitation.

Through individualised Pilates exercise selection, I focus on reprogramming compensations by inhibiting overactive muscles and facilitating muscles that may have become weak or checked out.

And it’s all done in a way that makes your body feel safe, but challenged.

Kind Words

As someone who works in the Allied Health Industry myself,
when the need arises to refer my clients to other health professionals
it is very important to me to have a practitioner I know and trust to look after them.
Without hesitation I confidently refer them to Rachel as an Exercise Physiologist.
I have personally used her services and found her knowledge and techniques brilliant.
Her expertise is extensive, and her approach is both professional and welcoming. I thoroughly recommend her.

I can’t thank Rachel from Ebb & Flow Exercise Physiology enough!
She truly listened and got to the heart of my issue.
Rachel created a simple yet effective individualised exercise program to strengthen my Pelvic Floor, Core, and hip stability,
and I already feel confident that I’ll be in top condition for the 100km walk I’m planning later this year.
Her clinic is warm and welcoming, and her two adorable sausage dogs make the sessions even more enjoyable.
I highly recommend Rachel to anyone looking for expert help with core and hip stability.
Her approach is thoughtful, professional, and results-driven.

I was referred to Rachel Niemann at Ebb & Flow Exercise Physiology by my Remedial Massage Therapist 10 months ago. She wanted me to build my strength up as I had been bedridden for over 3 years. This was due to …. I also had neuropathic pain over my entire body due to….. I am getting stronger now thanks to Rachel and the exercise programs she creates for me. I look forward to my sessions with Rachel - she is a lot of fun to be with and she makes the whole experience very enjoyable. Rachel plans the exercises so they strategically go at my pace and target the areas that need building up. As a result, I'm finding I am getting stronger and my nerve pain is slowly reducing. I can't believe how much progress I've made with Rachel and highly recommend her to anyone suffering chronic pain. Also, it's wonderful doing this with her gorgeous therapy dogs - Max and Hugo!

I have been seeing Rachel at Ebb and Flow for approx 6 months.
She provides excellent and easy to understand one on one support.
Rachel has helped me understand how specific muscles work and structures my sessions for maximum benefit.
Additionally she has provided online resources for regular at home exercises sessions for me between one on one appointments.
Rachel is helping me to improve my health and lifestyle. She also has a vast knowledge of ways to improve women's health.
I would definitely recommend Rachel to potential clients.

Rachel is fantastic!
She is thorough in her assessment and really makes the effort to understand the cause of symptoms
where other allied health practitioners have just shrugged it off.
Strongly recommend!
