Pneuma Pilates & Wellness - Overland Park, Kansas

I won’t say all the great things about Lorna & Pneuma Pilates, but I will share a few of the major mentions. First, I wasn’t sure Pilates was even for me, but it was worth a try after a friend recommended Lorna. I’m a 60 year old professional equestrian. After 40+ years of riding, my hips, low back, shoulders and neck were tight. My mobility and strength were diminished to the point that mounting & dismounting were painful. I didn’t have the needed strength to maintain a. correct seat and posture, so my performance in the arena was less than desired. I was losing confidence with every ride. In less than 10 sessions with Lorna I am much more improved. I still have a long way to go in terms of reaching all my professional goals, but I am certainly riding pain free, with confidence and more mobility and flexibility. My horses are happier, I’m happier and we are back in the winners circle! In addition to the desired results, I’m sleeping better, I’m more fit overall and I have more strength and energy through my very busy day. If you’re on the fence about Pilates, you can’t go wrong with Lorna at Pneuma Pilates. She is fantastic when it comes to biomechanics and her keen eye will not let you cheat yourself. Do it! You’ll be surprised at how quickly you see results. Call right now!

I have been working with Lorna for a bout 2 weeks and all of my sessions make me feel ten times better as an athlete. I came in and told her what I needed to work on and pains that I were having as an athlete and her work has made practices and intense football training easier. I would highly recommend her services to any athlete even if you are not in pain because this is injury prevention!!

My husband and I have been working with Lorna for a few months now in a private Duet class. We both work out regularly but wanted to switch up our routine and challenge ourselves with Pilates. I’m sometimes floored how hard a workout can feel when I’m not breaking a sweat but get the soreness of a CrossFit workout. We tried a few different instructors before we met Lorna and we LOVE her classes. She took the time to ask our goals and really breaks the movements down and gives us the why behind the exercise. She challenges us each class and they are never the same. The variety keeps me coming back whereas I always had found yoga to be a bit boring. I highly recommend Lorna to new or experienced individuals!

I attended the Pop Up Full Body workout today. It was an amazing experience. The space is super inviting; and the instructor was skilled, welcoming and encouraging. A beautiful soul. She demonstrates the exercises and offers modifications to fit your skill level. I definitely recommend that you give them a try. You won’t be disappointed.

I had been hurt in personal training previously and was diagnosed with cervicogenic headaches. I am also suffering from intermittent vertigo. My phone consultation with Lorna helped bring clarity to how physical therapy, chiropractic care, and personal training can work together. Her focus on collaboration and education will keep me safe as I continue to work towards overall health and wellness.

After just a few weeks working with Lorna, I am already noticing myself getting stronger. My struggles with knee pain and weakness have prevented me from returning to dance ballet, but with the wealth of knowledge and personalized care Lorna has offered me has already reduced my knee pain dramatically. I now have the support I need to get back to doing what I love.

I have been battling a hip injury and was at a point where I could not sit without being in extreme discomfort. I had tried traditional physical therapy for years which only focused on strengthening select body parts and not treating the root cause of my issue which was muscular imbalance and misalignment. I had heard about the health benefits of Pilates and faced with the increasing likelihood of hip arthroscopy, I decided to give it a try as a last ditch effort to avoid surgery.

I have been working with Lorna at Pneuma for about six weeks and it has been a transformative experience. She is incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, and each session is customized to my body to suit my recovery needs. Lorna uses a holistic approach to fitness and well-being, using specialized equipment and props in order to mobilize joints and strengthen/lengthen muscles through well-controlled, low-impact movements.

Since we have started working together my pain has decreased tremendously, I have better mobility & flexibility, I stand taller and have better posture, can sit for longer periods without discomfort, and am significantly stronger with better cardio fitness. Overall, my body feels better than it has in years.

What really sets Pneuma apart is that it is not just a place for exercise, but a sanctuary for rehabilitation and relaxation. Pneuma provides a calming atmosphere, the ambiance is serene which lowers stress levels and provides a rejuvenating experience. I often use the Infrared Sauna after my session which is not only relaxing but also improves my recovery.

I would highly recommend Pneuma to anyone interested improving their health and fitness and also those interested in decreasing pain associated with occupational or office related musculoskeletal discomfort. The results have been amazing and I am very excited to continue my journey to improve my fitness and overall physical well-being!
