All new clients to the studio have 3 private sessions before joining a class. Private sessions allow the instructor to focus fully on the individual clients strengths and needs and design sessions to address those needs. Progressing exercises are based on client's goal attainment.
Clients and Instructors work together to determine if classes or continued private sessions are required.
HOME PROGRAMMING
We will develop a home program for you based on your needs and interests. The Home programs require 1 hour of private instruction prior to developing the program. The instructor will take pictures of you performing the exercise correctly and will use an additional hour to record the program and send it to you. Home programming is done on site through a private session.

Scar Treatment: (50 min.)
Scars and tissue with adhesions due to injury or lack of use are negatively polarized and pull fascia/bones and muscles towards the scarring causing pain, postural misalignment and constant tension on the skeletal system. Neurostim is a gentle micro-current that painlessly releases the scarring, softens the area, reduces appearance of scars and re-polarizes it, releasing the nerves and fascia nets it attaches to. Regardless of how old the scar may be, Neurostim scar treatment can eliminate the negative affects scarring can have on the body and nervous system.
Vagus Nerve Treatment:
Health Canada has authorized the Dolphin Neurostim for Covid long-haul symptoms. (impaired breathing, fatigue, trouble swallowing). With most Covid long-haul people, the vagus nerve has dysfunction both structurally and functionally including nerve thickening in their vagus nerve. The findings at this point identifies the vagus nerve dysfunction as a central cause of Covid long-haul.”
The gentle (50 or 90 min. ) manual therapy/assisted stretching approach known as Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) focuses on freeing fascia from chronic tightness and restriction. FST covers a variety of difficulties associated with inactivity, inflammation, surgeries and persistent pain. The joint capsule, the deepest level of stiff fascia, is treated through fluid waves of movement at various angles. The waves of movement stretch the tissues and fibres while the muscles around the joints loosen, releasing the fascia. Range of motion, muscle strength, and flexibility increase as the fascia becomes more supple and hydrated. FST stimulates and calms the nervous system. Clients participate in FST treatments while dressed comfortably. The procedure is carried out on a massage table and includes the use of soft, supportive anchoring straps. The use of these straps promotes relaxation and improves the efficacy of the therapy. FST is highly calming and relaxing for clients. .FST is a complementary holistic therapy that is used in conjunction with chiropractic, physiotherapy, osteopathy, massage therapy, and/or other treatments. FST releases joints and muscle systems to restore natural tensions through the body. Pilates, then, strengthens the joints and muscles creating better supported posture.
Yoga Nidra is a rich practice under the guise of a descriptively simple premise: Rest in a supported savasana and is lead through a crafted script or meditation path. it is a practice informed by ancient anatomy and its efficacy is being increasingly measured in the fields of neuroscience and trauma recovery. On the physical level, the outcome is often a felt sense of relaxation and rest. Yoga Nidra is a tool used to encourage our parasympathetic nervous system response. Most participant's minds are often activated when their bodies are still. Yoga nidra assists with this challenge: carefully worded scripts offer the mental focusing tool that can enhance one's experience and quality of rest, even at the level of the mind.
