Remedy Pilates and Massage offers outstanding services and is operated by a friendly and knowledgeable staff. Located West of Scottsdale Rd on Shea, it's easy to find. Pilates sessions are offered for one-on-one training or in a small group. The instructors focus on your goals and they will push you as hard as you want or help you still get good work out of a lower impact session. Massage, acupuncture and chiropractic services are offered also.
I've been doing Pilates for a couple of years now (all @ Remedy) and it has become the foundation for my personal fitness. The focus on engaging your core muscles throughout the movements of the exercise makes for a much more efficient workout and you feel the results fairly quickly: Going up stairs, bending, kneeling, sitting and standing all feel easier, like my entire body is lighter. I feel lighter on my feet and my sense of balance seems to be greater. My energy level started increasing also.
If you are banging away at the Gym 3 to 4 times a week, coming home exhausted, getting sore and still not seeing the results, time to try something else. And to any guys that are not quite convinced because it looks nothing like the traditional workout... That's kind of the point. Challenge yourself and find out if you can hang.
