Pilates and Pregnancy

Dr Mankey has completed the internationally recognised Polestar Pilates course, which, combined with her sports training helps patients who require postural stability exercises.  Dr Mankey also has a keen interest in pre and post-pregnancy care.  Emily believes undertaking Pilates while you are pregnant helps the body adapt and recover from the natural strains placed on the body during pregnancy.
