Your back won’t settle. You’re recovering from a hip replacement and want more targeted, hands-on guidance than generic exercise sheets can offer. You play sport and you know your core is the weak link. Or you just want to keep moving well for as long as possible.
One-to-one clinical Pilates at Peacock Pain & Injury Clinic is built entirely around you: your body, your history and your goals. Every session is supervised throughout by a qualified practitioner, and nothing is generic.
We work with patients from across Mold, Flintshire, Wrexham, Chester and the wider North Wales area.
Clinical Pilates is rehabilitation-focused, one-to-one exercise delivered by a qualified clinician rather than a fitness class. It starts with a movement assessment, identifies what your body actually needs, and your sessions are adapted around that as you progress.
Unlike a group Pilates class, your session is adapted to you throughout. If you’ve tried Pilates before and found it didn’t address what you were dealing with, or you weren’t sure whether you were doing things correctly, this is the more appropriate option. It also works alongside hands-on physiotherapy and sports therapy as part of an active, concurrent approach to rehabilitation.
Your first session starts with a movement assessment and a conversation â your practitioner takes time to understand your history, symptoms and goals before you begin any exercises. From there, you’ll work through exercises chosen for what your assessment shows and what you’re hoping to achieve, focusing on the foundations: engaging the right muscles, moving with correct alignment, and building the control that more demanding work develops later.
You’ll leave each session knowing what you worked on and why. You’ll often be given a few exercises to practise at home between appointments, to help reinforce that progress. Details on session fees are available on our pricing page.
Your clinical Pilates sessions are delivered by Isabel Bishop, a physiotherapist and sports massage therapist at Peacock Pain & Injury Clinic. Isabel holds a BSc in Physiotherapy from Manchester Metropolitan University, is HCPC registered, and is a qualified Pilates instructor, so your programme is guided by physiotherapy-led assessment rather than a set class plan.
Her clinical interests line up closely with the reasons people come to Pilates here: lower back pain and sciatica, hip pain, and sports injuries across active individuals and gym-goers. She combines physiotherapy assessment and rehabilitation with hands-on massage and cupping therapy, and she’s a keen gym-goer herself, which shapes how she approaches safe, progressive return to activity.
In her own words: “I help you recover faster, reduce muscle tension, and move pain-free so you can perform at your best.”
Isabel is known for being friendly, approachable and easy to talk to, with a collaborative style focused on helping you understand your body and manage things well for the long term. You can read her full profile and qualifications before you book.
Whether you’re managing back pain, recovering from surgery, rebuilding after pregnancy, staying active and capable for longer, or wanting to perform better in your sport, we’ll choose and adapt your sessions around what your body actually needs.
