What is clinical Pilates?
Clinical Pilates is an exercise method that combines the traditional Pilates approach with modern research in biomechanics and rehabilitation. Supervised by a physiotherapist, it strengthens the deep muscles of the core and spine, corrects postural imbalances and prevents injury. At Gouizine Clinic in Temsia (Agadir), every session is individualized to your morphology and goals.
Benefits of clinical Pilates
- Deep muscle strengthening (core, pelvic floor, transverse abdominis)

- Coordination, balance and proprioception
- Prevention of sports and work-related injuries

Who is clinical Pilates for?
Unlike group Pilates classes, our clinical approach suits all profiles, including:
- Patients in post-surgical rehabilitation (back, hip, knee, shoulder)
- People with chronic pain in the back or neck
- Athletes who want to prevent injuries or improve performance
- Pregnant women and post-partum (with adaptation)
- Seniors who want to maintain balance and independence
- Office workers with sedentary-related tension
How a session unfolds
Every program begins with a postural and functional assessment by Houda or Noureddine Gouizine. A personalized exercise program is then built, in individual sessions of 45 to 60 minutes. Clinical Pilates is practiced on the mat or with small accessories (resistance bands, balls, rollers). Plan on 8 to 12 sessions for lasting results.
Clinical Pilates pairs naturally with physiotherapy and functional rehabilitation.
