I've always had problems with lower back pain due to spending most of my career in an office slumped over a computer or out and about behind a steering wheel. With the addition of flat feet and getting older it was all conspiring against me. Having thrown money at the problem, I’d tried lots of other options including physio and podiatry but nothing was helping. Pilates had been mentioned but I’d always thought of it as a bit girly and too gentle. I couldn't have been more wrong. I have private one to one sessions that I really enjoy, which certainly aren't girly and in a nice way more often than not you certainly feel it the next day. Lindsey has been fantastic, she understood me and my challenges straight away and quickly got to the nub of my problems. Building up my core, strengthening my back and legs has really got me to a good place. So whilst there’s no magic cure my challenges are certainly manageable and I've been able to go running again and take long country walks. There are lots of people out there who ‘do pilates’ – I think Lindsey is unique, having a warm personality, good sense of humour, lots of patience plus exceptional technical skills and knowledge – she’s very much on your side and only wants the best outcome for you. Highly recommended.

When I started coming to Clinic Equilibrium I had issues with my hips and knees, to the point where I struggled to kneel down or walk long distances. Three months later I’m pain free and have even started running. At first the Pilates machines looked pretty scary, but they are actually amazing and really enhance the sessions. The classes are great, they are small so the instructors really get to know your individual limitations. They push you but never beyond what you can do. It’s great being able to do a little more everytime, I was so excited the first time I touched my toes from straight legs! I couldn’t recommend enough.

Fantastic studio with lovely people! We've been going here for a year now which is the longest ever for me! That's testament to the team there. The classes aren't too large so you get good one-on-one attention, and they are mixed up each week so you don't get too used to the routines. I could feel the difference after a few months and after 12 I feel so much stronger and in better shape that ever before. Thank you to Lindsey and all the team!

My back pain got steadily worse over 2 years until I could no longer train or run, soon even sitting or lying in bed hurt. I was told by doctors I was "just getting old". Lindsey took me back to basics and gradually re-educated my movement. In just a few weeks the difference was amazing. I got stronger and more flexible so quickly. Lindsey has converted me to Pilates.

After a few months of Pilates at Clinic Equilibrium I am not not only noticing an improvement in the specific pain I had but also in day to day movement. I no longer feel stiff after a days gardening or after a long walk. The atmosphere in the small classes is relaxed and informal and Lindsey and her team always have time to answer individual queries. I can highly recommend Pilates and Clinic Equilibrium.

The physio I had over FaceTime was very clear and easy to understand. The latest knowledge Lindsey has on pelvic floor exercise is so interesting and makes much more sense than any other pelvic floor physio/online advice I’ve ever had/read . I have started the exercises everyday and really hope I can get back to pre baby condition so that I can run/do impact sports again.

I don't think there are enough superlatives to describe this studio. With small groups, experienced and enthusiastic teachers my rehab has been really successful. An amazing offer for the studio came up and I'm so glad I signed up. Thank you to the wonderful team, you really are amazing!

The people at Clinic Equilibrium are professional, caring, accommodating and approachable. They are also highly adaptable. In these crazy covid times the studio has had to close however Lindsey remains in contact and they are now releasing online classes. Now I can do a class three times a week. And maintain my sanity. I would recommend Clinic Equilibrium to everybody.

I love coming to the class on Friday morning, I love the fact the classes are so small, it’s almost one to one tuition. It means you get great results as your technique is constantly being monitored. Lynsey and Claire are so friendly and all the staff are experts . Great location, excellent equipment , highly recommended!

I love this studio and their classes. It’s so much better than anywhere else I’ve tried. They’ve taken the time to understand what I’m looking to get out of classes and where my pinch points are and we work on them every week. Love the small class sizes and the general vibe! I’m now doing the Tuesday evening class aimed at pre and post pregnancy. I’m getting loads out of it and it’s helping me keep moving as I get bigger. Keely is fantastic and is so knowledgable, it’s helping to build my health, strength and confidence class by class.
