Services
We recommend that everyone who consults with us book in for an OptimalMe Corrective Basics Pack. This introductory pack is made up of two 45-minute one-on-one sessions and is ideal for rehabilitation or pain relief. We'll identify and start to address any issues you may have or just ensure you've got the basics right.
You'll learn personalised techniques to release muscle tightness and pain; how to use your muscles correctly to improve posture and balance, and how to breath effectively for improved strength and relaxation. We include postural education for sitting, standing, walking (and running if appropriate) and any other of your regular activities.
We'll send you home with educational and exercise handouts so you can continue to put into practice what you have learned.
Following your Introduction sessions we recommend one or more review sessions, depending on your needs and your budget. Alternatively you can join a group class or consider ongoing personal training.
One to One - Studio or Online
If you don't have any significant issues to address, you may like to consider ongoing personal training. This is ideal for those who prefer one-on-one sessions, want quick results or need their training to fit around their busy lifestyle. You can choose from 30,45 or 60 minute sessions. No fixed contracts - simply book in as required and pay as you go.
Group - Studio or Online
For those who live in the vicinity we offer a range of small group classes to suit your time, budget or exercise demands.
And you’ll get the additional advantage of group dynamics with extra fun and support.
For those of you further away or with a challenging timetable, we will soon offer a weekly Zoom group class which you can attend live, or follow a recorded session. You'll notice the difference between being part of a live class where we can keep an eye on you, compared to just following a recorded session, so we encourage live participation if at all possible.
