Elevate Your Practice and Empower Your Clients: The Spinefitter Advantage

At Polestar Pilates, we understand the dedication Pilates instructors and physical therapists have to their clients’ well-being. We’re constantly seeking innovative tools to enhance your practice and empower you to deliver exceptional results. The Spinefitter by SISSEL – a revolutionary tool to enhance Pilates and physical therapy sessions – stands out as a versatile and effective tool, celebrated for its ability to improve spinal health, core strength, and overall client progress. 

As proven by SISSEL’s 2022 case study, spine mobility, pain, and tension were significantly improved in participants after incorporating the Spinefitter into their practice.

Here’s how the Spinefitter can revolutionize your Pilates or physical therapy sessions:

• Enhanced Spinal Alignment and Mobility: The Spinefitter’s ergonomic design cradles the natural curvature of the spine, promoting better posture and improved mobility in your clients. Consistent use can increase flexibility, reduce stiffness, and contribute to a healthier back – a fundamental goal for many clients. 
• Targeted Muscle Activation and Relaxation: The unique structure, featuring rows of massage balls, delivers deep tissue stimulation, promoting muscle relaxation and recovery. It’s particularly adept at activating hard-to-reach muscle groups, ensuring a well-rounded and effective workout for your clients. 
• Effective Therapeutic and Rehabilitative Support: For clients experiencing back pain or recovering from injuries, the Spinefitter offers a gentle yet effective approach to pain relief and rehabilitation. Its design facilitates safe, controlled movements, making it ideal for therapeutic settings. 
• Unleash Versatility in Your Sessions: Suitable for beginners and advanced clients alike, the Spinefitter integrates seamlessly with various exercise levels. This adaptability ensures dynamic and engaging sessions tailored to individual needs, a must-have for any instructor or therapist. 
• Boost Client Body Awareness: Utilizing the Spinefitter can heighten a client’s body awareness, particularly regarding spinal alignment and movement. This amplified awareness is crucial for mastering Pilates techniques and achieving long-term benefits for your clients. 
• Seamless Integration into Group or Private Sessions: The Spinefitter adds value in both group classes and private sessions. It allows for synchronized group activities or personalized routines, making it a perfect choice for all Pilates and physical therapy environments. 

“If your spine is completely flexible at 60, you are young.”
