Gyrotonic® is the Fitness Secret of the Stars

In the November 3rd issue of US Weekly, Nicollette Sheridan discloses that Gyrotonic® is her fitness secret to looking good.  Pilates Plus is proud to offer Gyrotonic® as a fitness option to all of our clients.  If you have not yet tried Gyrotonic® now is your chance to look and feel like a celebrity. 

 The Gyrotonic Expansion System ® was developed based on combining principles of ballet, gymnastics, and yoga.  It operates via a series of weights and pulleys that provide resistance for your body without painful pressure, while at the same time allowing full freedom and range of motion alongside the precision of day to day activities.  It is great for improving flexibility and stability, making it a wonderful compliment to Pilates exercises, and Gyrotonic® is one of the best means for rehabilitating back injuries, particularly those borne of muscular stress.

 Book your appointment today to find out why this form of exercise is catching on alll over the nation.
