The OptiNeck Balance Wedge® for Pilates

The OptiNeck Balance Wedge® has been described as a "game-changer", a "super start piece of equipment" and "absolutely the best Pilates prop out there".

It has become the go-to piece of equipment in a growing number of mat and equipment based Pilates studios.

The unique design opens up a wide range of new movement, mobilisation and strengthening exercise possibilities.

It allows the skilled Pilates instructor to combine stability at one end of the trunk with mobility at the other.

The specific angle of inclination allows for a range of exercise progressions.

The stability of the Balance Wedge means the Pilates client has as strong and stable base from which they can effectively combine mobilisation and stretch control.

"I have found the Balance Wedge to be an invaluable tool in allowing clients to develop a greater awareness of their postural alignment.

From a client perspective, the Wedge offers immediate feedback and soft tissue release. From a teaching perspective, the Wedge has opened up a number of rehab / exercise possibilities".

- Katie Meaden - Physio and Body Control Pilates Instructor

I use the Wedge within my Pilates classes, and all my clients have enjoyed the benefits of the mobility they have gained from using it.

The Wedge is definitely something you need to try in order to realise how and why it is effective. If you are a cynic like me, then this is for you!!"

- Emma Dodd - Physio, APPI Pilates Pilates Instructor, JEMS Practitioner

I also use the Balance Wedge with all my Pilates clients. In fact all my regulars have been so impressed with the results achieved during our sessions that they have bought one to use at home to help maintain their spinal mobility.
