Join our Pilates Rehab Program

This program is designed with a physiotherapist and allows you to use your insurance benefits for your private or semi-private sessions.

Sessions will be 50 minutes long and catered to you with constant input from the physiotherapist.

When your benefits run out, you can register for privates or duos at a more affordable rate but they are not covered under physiotherapy benefits. Click here to book under privates/duos NOT Pilates Rehab.

Who can join?

Anyone. We all need to work on something physically whether it be recovering from a knee replacement or working on our posture. We, with the help of our physio, will help get you in tip top shape.

Where do sessions take place?

Sessions can take place with our teachers in any of our studios but we have the most availability and flexibility at our Private Suite in The Glebe at 738 Bank Street.

Pricing

  • Initial Assessment

    You will meet with the physiotherapist virtually for 30-45 minutes. It is important to have your phone or computer camera set-up where your full body is visible. The doctor will create a plan for you and advise when the follow-up session should take place. The physio therapist will then share the plan with the instructor and answer any questions they may have.

  • Follow-up with Physio

    $100

    The doctor will suggest a time to meet depending on your particular situation. The check-in is used to assess the current Pilates Rehab plan and adjust where necessary with the instructor.

  • Private Pilates Rehab

    $140

    Each session is 50 minutes and will incorporate the suggested exercise plan created by the physio while also incorporating exercises for a well-rounded pilates session. The instructor will communicate with the physiotherapist after each session to ensure the plan is effective and appropriate for you.

  • Duo Pilates Rehab

    $160

    Pilates for you and a friend! The instructor will incorporate exercises suggested by the physio for both of you while still incorporating exercises to create a well-balanced 50-minute pilates session.

Please email info@glebepilates.ca to inquire about pricing for when only one half is under the Pilates Rehab program.
