ABOUT HOLYWOOD PILATES

Holywood Pilates & Physiotherapy Clinic was established in 2010 by Dr Lorraine Maxwell (DPhil) who has 20 years clinical physiotherapy experience as well as being a fully certified Pilates instructor through the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI). We moved to our current premises in April 2019.

We run physiotherapy led modified Pilates classes and offer 1:1 Pilates, musculoskeletal physiotherapy and postnatal checks. There are currently 5 Chartered Physiotherapists working in the team.

WHAT IS PILATES?

Pilates is a mind body conditioning exercise program that targets the deep postural muscles of the abdomen and spine to improve overall central core stability and posture.

Pilates suits all ages and fitness levels and is particularly beneficial for those with back pain, poor posture, neurological conditions, sports injuries, arthritis, and before and after pregnancy. It is also great for injury prevention or for those who simply want to tone and strengthen their bodies.

Holywood Pilates practices modified Pilates exercises as taught by the APPI - the original 34 Pilates matwork exercises have been modified to incorporate the recent research on lumbar instability, muscle imbalance and adverse neural tension.

Lorraine qualified as a physiotherapist in 1998 and obtained her PhD studying paediatric orthopaedics in 2004. Over the last 20 years she has worked in a wide range of paediatric and adult musculo-skeletal areas both in Belfast and in London...
