HELLERWORK & PILATES

Combining a Hellerwork series with your regular Pilates workout has many benefits.

When the body is even slightly out of alignment and restricted by fascial adhesions it will limit movement in all planes and directions. Since a Pilates routine consists of movement from the inside out and movement in all directions, removing restrictions and correcting alignment issues will enhance any physical activity including mat classes and apparatus classes.

Other benefits include resolving any long-standing chronic aches and pains that have been lingering. In many cases Hellerwork has helped Pilates clients get in touch with muscles that are difficult to access without overcompensating by using other muscle groups. Hellerwork will help you connect to core in a way that allows you to find support while releasing extra muscular contractions during your work out.

Check out what the Pilates trainers are saying about Hellerwork:

“As the owner of The Surrey Pilates Studio, I have worked with bodies and movement for many years. I have sent many of my clients to Ivan Duben for Hellerwork sessions when Pilates alone could not get them to connect or release certain parts of their bodies because of either old injuries or just bad postural habits. It has helped every one of my clients, and they all say the differences and releases they feel are amazing. As their Pilates instructor I can see the differences. There is more ease and freedom in their movements which has helped them make a deeper mind to body connection and feel comfortable living in thier bodies. They all say Ivan, (Hellerwork), is an absolute gift and I agree.”
