Pilates is an excellent form of exercise to work on core stability, whole body strengthening, and flexibility. We offer specialized sessions to teach individuals both with scoliosis and without scoliosis how to participate in Pilates techniques to get maximum benefit and avoid injury.

At least one private session is required to assess skill level, needs, and identify any barriers to participation. Your instructor will then recommend: continued private sessions, semi private sessions for advanced strengthening, or a round of schroth therapy to address pain/strength/flexibility barriers.

Progression to semi private sessions is encouraged for the following reasons:
- Grouping sessions allows us to offer more options and flexibility with scheduling!
- It allows us to decrease prices per/session and make Pilates more affordable!
- It's fun to exercise with others!

Schroth Classes (AFTER individual therapy)

Classes are offered at our clinic for individuals who have completed their initial program and want to continue in a class setting with peers.

*Each slot allows a max of 6-8 clients due to space.

Rachel helps people with scoliosis and posture issues return to normal life without pain, feel better about their body image, prevent worsening of their curves, and avoid surgery using specialized exercise!

She understands the frustrations and confusion surrounding life with scoliosis - because she lives with it too!

Diagnosed with a mild curve as a teen, Rachel was told to watch and wait because the curve wasn’t bad enough to cause issues later in life … BUT IT DID.

As a professional dancer in college, she thought she had great posture and strength. However, as time went on she began to struggle with numbness and weakness in her right leg that no one could explain. Other than her scoliosis, her x-rays and MRIs were normal. Her physical therapy colleagues could not find a clear cause of her symptoms. She could not fix herself- and boy was that frustrating!

Then Rachel discovered THE SCHROTH METHOD and learned that a little scoliosis can make a big difference after all. Through the very specific exercises she implemented, she was able to solve the numbness and weakness in her right leg! She was able to control her posture and intermittent pain! She could even perform balance tasks in dance better!

>Scoliosis can be a scary diagnosis and the road to managing is not clearly paved. Rachel is passionate about being a guide for those who do not know what to do about their posture problem.

She wants kids and teens to have access to the exercises she did not, so they can thrive and minimize issues later in life.

She wants to give hope to adults that have been told, “There is nothing you can do except surgery,” or “Just live with it.”

>BECAUSE YOU CAN DO SOMETHING to take charge of your scoliosis and Rachel wants to show you how!
