About Christiana:

Christiana is a highly experienced musculoskeletal (MSK) physiotherapist with over 30 years of clinical expertise in both the NHS and private practice, working across Germany, Australia, and the UK. She is part of the team at Pro Pelvic Physiotherapy, where she specialises in the treatment of lower back, hip, pelvic, and shoulder pain, as well as osteoporosis.

Christiana has a particular passion for supporting women through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond, combining evidence-based physiotherapy with a deep understanding of the unique challenges faced during this life stage.

In addition to her physiotherapy work, Christiana is a qualified Matwork Pilates instructor (trained in Perth, Australia in 2003) and teaches classes with Cambridge Physio Pilates, as well as Reformer Pilates at Contento Pilates.

Committed to ongoing professional development, she regularly attends CPD courses through the Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute (APPI). Her training includes specialised Pilates programs for osteoporosis, menopause, spinal surgery recovery, healthy hips, and sport-specific needs such as skiing and cycling—ensuring she stays up to date with the current techniques and research.

Christiana teaches mat pilates classes online and face to face classes in Great Abington as well as offering one to one reformer pilates classes at Contento Pilates in Great Shelford.

If you have any queries, I would be very happy to answer your questions, whether you have attended pilates classes before or if you are a beginner.
