One-on-One Therapeutic Pilates Training
Our therapeutic training approach: Privacy is critical, and we only train individual clients and duets. We evaluate your movement patterns and posture as we slowly guide you toward your specific goals, which will be based on your personal history and the progress made. We will show you how to move pain-free and efficiently to achieve a healthy lifestyle. Our cross-training approach to Pilates will focus on functional training, movement re-education, and integration of mind and body.
Our studio has a private entrance, with an area to change into your workout clothes, a separate bathroom, and plenty of space for your workout.
Free parking is available in the driveway of 1201 Burton St. or on Alton Pkwy. We are located within 10 minutes of the red line in downtown Silver Spring, Maryland.
Due to its therapeutic and low-impact nature, Pilates is the perfect training method for people with back pain, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, post-operative joint rehabilitation, scoliosis, stenosis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and breast cancer survivors. Once cleared by your physician or physical therapist, you are ready for therapeutic Pilates.

Pilates and Back Pain
How can Pilates help people with back pain?
Issues such as lack of core support, pelvic instability, muscular imbalances, poor posture, and lack of body awareness all affect back health. The Pilates method specializes in helping people improve these issues.
Pilates for Breast Cancer Survivors
Exercise may be the last thing you feel like doing after breast cancer surgery. You’re probably exhausted, your arm may be painful and swollen, and the adjuvant treatments can make you feel even worse. All you want to do is rest. In the past, that’s exactly what doctors recommended. However, recent studies indicate a link between moderate physical exercise and improved quality of life for breast cancer survivors.
We are dedicated to promoting a healthy lifestyle and positive body image to all breast cancer survivors. As a Pink Ribbon certified coach, Heike will help stretch and strengthen the shoulder, chest, back, and abdominal muscles, allowing women to regain full range of motion to those areas affected by breast cancer surgery. This program is suitable whether your surgery was recent or several years ago and accommodates all fitness levels. Don’t hesitate to contact us to learn how Pilates can help you.
