Therapeutic Pilates adapted to each person
When there is an injury, persistent pain, or physical limitation, moving properly can make a big difference.
At Pilates Studio Ibiza, I adapt each session to the individual's needs, abilities, and goals, always respecting their pace and circumstances. The aim is not to push the body harder, but to help it gradually and safely regain mobility, confidence, strength, and well-being.
Throughout more than 24 years of experience, I have worked with people with different pathologies, recovery processes, and very diverse physical situations, always providing close and personalized attention.

Therapeutic Pilates for back pain and postural improvement
Hernias and disc protrusions
Back pain, sciatica, and postural changes.
Many people come to the studio after years of living with back discomfort, limited movement, or recurring episodes of pain.
Therapeutic Pilates allows for progressive and adapted work, strengthening the musculature stabilizer, improving mobility and helping to regain confidence in the movement.
When there is a herniated or bulging disc, the goal is to help the body move more efficiently and safely by reducing compensations that can worsen discomfort.
The sessions are tailored to each situation, aiming to improve spine stability, mobility, and functionality while always respecting each person's limits.
Scoliosis and postural abnormalities
Through specific exercises and personalized work, it is possible to improve body awareness, strengthen areas that need it, and promote better postural balance.
Sciatica and piriformis syndrome
Adapted work on mobility, stability, and body control can help reduce tension, improve movement, and progressively regain confidence in daily activities.
Regain mobility after an injury or surgery
Getting back to moving with confidence after an injury, surgery, or a prolonged period of inactivity can be one of the biggest challenges during recovery.
Through therapeutic Pilates and adapted work, I guide each person progressively to help them regain mobility, strength, stability, and confidence in their daily movements.
Knee injury recovery
Meniscus and ligament injuries, or the recovery processes after knee surgery, require progressive work that respects the body's timeline.
The sessions help improve stability, strengthen supporting muscles, and regain confidence in movement.
Shoulder injury recovery
Shoulder discomfort can limit simple activities like dressing, driving, or lifting objects.
Through adapted exercises, we work on mobility, stability, and movement control to promote a functional and safe recovery.
Hip and knee prostheses
After the implantation of a prosthesis, regaining mobility, balance, and autonomy is essential to once again enjoy daily activities.
Progressive and personalized work improves joint mobility, stability, and movement quality, always respecting each person's pace.

Therapeutic Pilates offers several benefits for scoliosis: * **Improved Posture:** Pilates focuses on core strengthening and spinal alignment, which can help to correct posture and reduce spinal curvature. * **Muscle Strengthening and Balancing:** It targets weak muscles and stretches tight ones, creating better balance and support around the spine. This can help to prevent further progression of the curve. * **Increased Core Strength:** A strong core is essential for supporting the spine. Pilates exercises engage the deep abdominal muscles, obliques, and back muscles, providing a stable foundation. * **Enhanced Body Awareness:** Pilates promotes a mind-body connection, increasing awareness of one's posture and movement patterns. This allows individuals to identify and correct asymmetrical habits that may contribute to scoliosis. * **Pain Reduction:** By improving posture and muscle balance, Pilates can alleviate muscle strain and reduce associated pain. * **Improved Flexibility and Mobility:** Gentle stretching and controlled movements in Pilates can increase flexibility in the spine and surrounding muscles, improving range of motion. * **Functional Movement:** Pilates exercises are designed to improve everyday movements, making daily activities easier and less painful for individuals with scoliosis. * **Reduced Risk of Progression:** While Pilates cannot "cure" scoliosis, consistent practice can help to manage the condition, reduce the severity of symptoms, and potentially slow or prevent the progression of the spinal curve.
