Is Body Contrology Pilates Studios right for you?

People with back pain
Studio specialises in back pain. Initial consultation assesses past physical issues and designs progressive programs around strengths and weaknesses.
Those seeking structured progression
Studio recommends 2-3 sessions per week for 2-3 months to see meaningful results. Each session is customised based on initial assessment and ongoing progress.
Maybe not for you if… Maybe not for you if you prefer drop-in group classes — all sessions are by appointment only with a maximum of 5 people, and you work on your own individual program rather than following a group class format.
