Do you want to get back to your normal exercise routine?
Our Therapeutic Pilates program is designed to ‘bridge the gap’ and safely return patients to their normal exercise routine following traditional physical therapy. Programs are tailored to an individual’s needs and will focus on postural symmetry, spinal stabilization, motor control, and strengthening of the entire body through controlled ranges of motion. Therapeutic Pilates will consist of mat, table, and chair based exercises with the use of the Pilates Circle, Thera-Band, and a foam roller. You do not need to have been a physical therapy patient to take advantage of this program.
Benefits of Therapeutic Pilates:
Identification and correction of faulty movement patterns and strategies

Spinal mobilization of any part of the spine and in any direction of movement
Education on the proper breathing technique to enhance core control, thoracic/rib mobility, and improves posture

“I was referred to Specht PT by a very satisfied family member. I had suffered for months with debilitating neck pain. I could barely move my head from left to right due to severe pain and stiffness. The results of my neck MRI led me to the RI Spine Institute in which the MD there told me I would never have normal function of my neck. I was likely headed for surgery. Instead I went to Specht PT and was evaluated and treated by Greg Specht. He told me he disagreed with the spinal specialist and could help me, and that he did! I am thrilled with my results having normal use of my neck now. It was amazing! I am so grateful to Greg for his expertise and help. Just make me one more very satisfied client!”
