Elaine Simpson is one of many self-employed individuals that have reinvented their business services as a result of the Coronavirus pandemic.
Founder of Discover Physio and Pilates based in Ribchester, Elaine isn’t the only rehabilitation practitioner that has seen their business impacted by the pandemic.
The effects of Covid-19 on physiotherapy
During the first phase, physiotherapy and rehabilitation services were paused, and many remain so despite the demand for these services being at an all-time high.
In order to prevent clients with long-term conditions from deteriorating during lockdown as well as provide treatment for those recovering from Covid-19, Elaine decided she needed to reinvent her business.
Online Pilates sessions
Swapping a purpose-built studio for her home in West Bradford, Elaine now teaches weekly Pilates sessions online. It was a very speedy transition to the online platform, taking only 24 hours to get all clients set up for their weekly class. The classes have remained extremely well attended.
“I’ll admit I was a little apprehensive initially in terms of the use of technology, however I was amazed to see how quickly my clients adapted and we’ve had the best attendance ever at classes.”
Pilates is recognised by most health care professionals, particularly musculoskeletal/back pain specialists, GPs and neurologists, as the best method for aiding rehabilitation.
Because it is a low impact exercise, it is suitable for everyone. Focussing on posture, alignment and movement with control, Pilates improves flexibility, mobility and strengthens the whole body with a strong focus on the core.
Despite current restrictions, physiotherapy/rehabilitation consultations continue to be carried out face to face at the client’s home, or in the practice and patients also have the option to receive online treatment where possible.

Many people are helped by acupuncture every year. DISCOVER offers western evidence-based acupuncture. Elaine is a qualified health professional and is a member of the AACP. The AACP, as the largest acupuncture organisation in the UK, represents Chartered Physiotherapists who are qualified to use acupuncture as part of their treatments.
By managing a patient’s pain, acupuncture often enhances physiotherapy treatments, such as exercise, therefore aiding recovery.
Acupuncture is supported by scientific research and clinical evidence and may benefit a range of conditions*, such as Low Back Pain, Osteoarthritis, Tension- type Headaches, Migraines, Anxiety and others.

Deep Tissue Laser Therapy accelerates your body’s own natural healing process through photo-bio-stimulation. Laser therapy provides concrete benefits to your patients and your practice. Laser therapy is effective in treating chronic conditions, acute conditions and post surgical pain.
Laser therapy is a non-invasive technique to help reduce pain and inflammation. Laser therapy can be safely used as an adjunct or replacement for pharmaceutical drugs.
Laser therapy treatments last between 5 and 10 minutes depending on the condition being treated. Laser therapy treatments must be administered directly to skin, as laser light cannot penetrate through layers of clothing. You will feel a soothing warmth as the therapy is administered.
Depending on the condition being treated your therapy may be administer through either a contact or non-contact hand piece. The contact hand piece is designed to allow the practitioner to physically manipulate the tissue while administering the treatment, resulting in a laser-massage treatment. This allows for light to penetrate deeper into tissues than the non-contact hand piece due to it’s ability to displace tissue through a laser-massage technique. Patients generally see benefit within 3-5 treatments although in some cases the effects can be immediate.
Call Elaine on 07525432889 to discuss how laser therapy could benefit you.
Discover Pilates can now offer Pilates reformer 1:1 or 1:2 classes.
