Santosha Pilates Movement Therapy: The Missing Piece After Physical Therapy
If you’ve done physical therapy, stayed consistent, and still feel like you’re only getting about 70% better—you’re not alone. This is exactly where many of my clients start.
They’ve done everything “right.” They’ve committed to their exercises, followed through with care plans, and built healthy habits. And yet… something still feels off. There’s lingering pain, instability, or a sense that their body just isn’t fully working with them yet.
This is where a physical therapy + Pilates blend—what I call Pilates Movement Therapy—becomes the next step.
I give you guidance that actually makes them work. Because I want you feeling better and getting stronger!
Your PT exercises ARE proven to help with many injuries, but they only work if you do them in a way that makes them truly effective- by individualizing what you’re doing.
It’s not your fault if you’re unsure what to adjust on your own. Most people aren’t taught the subtle details and unfortunately, following a handout you were given or random online program isn’t going to help you adjust for your own body and its nuances.
When movements aren’t tailored to the imbalances in your structure, habits and nervous system, they don’t do what they’re supposed to do, and have the potential to make things worse.
But that’s where I come in! I’m Mandee, a Pilates Movement Therapist, and I know I can help.
I started Santosha Pilates Movement Therapy® to create a place where people learn what other programs assume is already implied. I teach the stuff that comes before the first instructions you’d get elsewhere, the stuff that really makes the biggest difference in how it all lands.
It’s the stuff that most Instructors skip, or most classes don’t do because it’s assumed that those layers are already in place. It’s diving in deeper to the exercises your PT recommended for you.
The Santosha Movement Society is the place people come to finally make the progress they’ve been after. Personalized, detailed cueing so you get the most out of each movement. We combine 1:1 sessions with tailored homework and videos to really imprint the work, and small groups where you get to practice what you’ve learned with my eyes on you and feedback. My business is hybrid, so no matter where you’re located, this program is for you.
If you’re sick of doing the same exercises without getting better, I’m so ready to guide you to lasting change! Fill out the new student form to get started today, and check out info on the Santosha Movement Society here.
