About The Australian Institute of Physiotherapy & Pilates (APPI)


Liz Havard is an APPI Pilates Instructor. Learn more about APPI...

 

The APPI has modified the original 34 pilates matwork exercises to incorporate the recent research on lumbar instability, muscle imbalance and adverse neural tension. All techniques are based on scientific evidence. The APPI Pilates Method provides therapists with a clinical and user friendly tool for retraining correct activation of the deep postural muscles (Multifidus, Transversus Abdominus and pelvic floor) to improve overall central core stability. It is a  body conditioning exercise programme that consists of a progressive repertoire of mat based exercises designed specifically for Physiotherapists and equivalent degree therapists to teach to the clinical population. The key elements of APPI Pilates method include retraining:

 

* Neutral lumbo-pelvic alignment and activation of the key stabilising muscles

* Correct ribcage/thoracic alignment
* Scapulo-thoracic stabilisation for the shoulder
* Deep neck flexor retraining to stabilise the cervical spine


The repertoire of APPI Pilates exercises also include exercises to improve spinal mobility, flexibility of the key trunk and lower limb muscles groups, body awareness and postural awareness.
