Welcome to Precision Pilates Newsletter!

Welcome to the first installment of Precision Pilates e-newsletter.   We hope to provide you with some valuable information in each edition with columns written by local health and body professionals including Chiropractors, Massage Therapists, Nutritionists, aestheticians, and others. 

In this issue, Chiropractors, Dr. Jason Fortier and Dr. Kelly VanSlyke introduce themselves and their thoughts on Pilates, Wellness and Chiropractic.  They will be regular contributors to the newsletter.

Of course, we also want to have some fun with this because smiling is good for you. :)

We've now been open in the Charlotte Street Arts Centre for 1 month.  It has been very exciting and exhuasting, but we do think that the move was a good one and we are so happy to share everything the studio has to offer with you.

Congratulations to you for taking a very important step towards better health, posture and lifestyle by having Pilates in your life.

Sincerely,

Cara Berube

Introducing Dr. Kelly and
Dr. Jason - The Wellness Doctors!

In the fall of 2008 a familiar face walked into my office and said "Hi Kelly!  Remember me?  It's Cara!"  Cara and I spent several summers together at figure skating camps "back in the day".  It was such a pleasure to catch up and to realize that our paths, although different, led us in the same direction - to help people achieve their maximum health potential!

 

I was very excited to learn that our philosophies on health and wellness were aligned.  As a Chiropractor, my goal is to help patients by removing stress from their nervous system via the spine. Removal of this stress allows your body to self regulate and heal optimally, and also helps you to experience life to the fullest!  Pilates compliments Chiropractic care with a strong focus on spinal health, strength, stability and flexibility.

 

Working with Cara and seeing the positive results that Chiropractic and Pilates has on a person's life really gets me excited!  It is my life's purpose to help people of all ages experience true health and wellness.

 I had the good fortune of meeting Cara when she and Dr. Kelly reunited in the fall of 2008;   I immediately knew this was the start of a great friendship and professional relationship.   

 

As not only a Chiropractor but a regular Chiropractic wellness patient myself, I noticed a huge synergistic effect by combining Pilates classes with my regular Chiropractic visits!  Through my personal experience, expertise in Chiropractic and wellness, and the more I learned about classical Pilates, I began to recommend Cara's classes to the vast majority of my patients and have seen dramatic positive results.    

 

There is nothing better for you than to: 'Be Fit. Eat Right. Think Well.'; this lifestyle combination is the master key to unlock true wellness from within.   Sounds simple, yet it must be practiced over a lifetime and takes tremendous commitment to stay on track.  What can help to catalyze this 3 pronged approach?  Chiropractic!  A highly functioning nervous system will allow you to get more out of your workouts, help you adapt to stress, and help to optimize your body's function.  Also, your Chiropractor is a great resource for nutritional, exercise and other lifestyle advice.     

 

The purpose of this column is to provide readers with information that will educate, empower and inspire you to be healthy by choice, not by chance.   So if achieving true health is something you are interested in - contact us, and/or be sure to read this newsletter regularly!

What are 'Tower' Classes
The 'Tower' Class
 
Tower classes use the 'Tower' Apparatus that you see hanging on the wall behind 5 of the mats at Precision Pilates.   The Tower, originally invented by Joseph Pilates as part of his Cadillac apparatus is used to provide varying spring tensions to many exercises.   The springs are attached to hand or foot straps or a roll back or push-through bar.  These different 'attachments' allow us to stretch and strengthen our bodies by helping us better find our center, powerhouse and control.  Classes are limited to 6 participants and are an excellent compliment for those who are already doing 1 mat class per week.
