Inga Balčiūnienė

Still a physiotherapist, but no longer in a treatment room.

Why work with me?

I am both a physiotherapist and a STOTT PILATES® instructor, with more than 10 years of experience in physiotherapy and rehabilitation.

My work is based on clinical reasoning, individual assessment and purposeful dosing of physical load. I do not follow one fixed exercise programme – for each person I look for what they specifically need.

I combine physiotherapy knowledge, rehabilitation experience, STOTT PILATES®, movement control and strength training principles. Years of professional courses allow me to look at movement more broadly – from pain or a movement disorder to returning to an active life and building physical capacity.

What matters to me is not only how you perform an exercise today, but how your body will move and function in the future.

My goal is not to create dependence on training or on constant help from a specialist. I want you to understand your body better, get stronger, learn to manage physical load and become more independent.

Whether you come because of back or joint problems, after rehabilitation, to start exercising, to get stronger or simply to feel better in your body – I always look at the person, not the diagnosis.

Movement is not just an exercise. It is the ability to live, to do sport and to do what matters to you every day.
