Bodyscape is passionate about helping the pickleball community play without limitation

“I fell in love with pickleball after my step-dad, Gil Federico, introduced it to me in Arizona. From that point on I’ve been passionate about playing, enjoying my new found friends, competing, and being a certified referee. 2 years ago at Regionals I tore my ACL, and after extensive rehabilitation including BFR, I am back playing better than ever and look forward to sharing my training regimen that I developed with PT and Pickilates.” – Leslie Frank, Owner

We understand that you are likely tired of:

  • Pain and stiffness during and after playing pickleball
  • Being frustrated due to your inability to play like you use to
  • Struggling to get to the ball and be more athletic on the court with consistency
  • Wondering if you’ll ever feel better

You’re here because you’re ready to:

  • Play at a higher level on the court without pain and limitations
  • Be more competitive in tournaments and social play
  • Be able to enjoy the socialization you love
  • Dedicate time to improve physically and mentally on and off the court

What makes Pickleball PT unique?

  • Bodyscape knows what goes into being a great pickleball player. We know all the different aspects of the game that need to be improved to get you better, starting with focused treatment on your physical issues.
  • The gap from where you are to where you want to be is bridged with physical therapy focused on pickleball specific training using pilates, blood flow restriction therapy (BFR), agility and balance training, GYROTONIC® exercise and on-court training. Most patients also require some form of manual work and modalities such as kinesiotaping.
  • Our thorough evaluation determines what’s really going on with you. What is the source of your problems? This includes watching you on-court, in-person or with video, as well doing physical measurements and tests to see what is contributing to your issues.
  • After the evaluation, you’ll be guided through a step by step process to improve in all the areas where your body needs attention. The process usually begins with manual work, strengthening and stretching, that you’ll also do at home.
  • Every time improvement is seen, your program is advanced. Eventually you’ll be doing high level agility and on-court training. The speed of the process depends upon how quickly your body reacts to treatment. We avoid going too fast or slow, as we want progression to “fit” your personal recovery speed.
  • You’ll learn how to warm-up properly prior to playing, and your physical and mental game on-court will improve for the better.

What is Pickilates?

  • Pickilates is Pilates that is focused on what pickleball players need to play at their best.
  • Pickilates includes simulated pickleball movements using the entire body, physical control, precision, strength, stability, rotational movements, the use of breath and mental concentration.
  • With the help of equipment you’ll be able to experience pickleball enhancing movement that is scaled to your ability level. As you improve, the difficulty level increases.
  • By the end of each session, you will feel “worked out” in a good way. Then when you step on the court you’ll be stronger, faster, more stable, in control and consistent.
  • Pickilates movement is highly modifiable so that you can do it, no matter your ability level.
The best thing about Pickleball PT and Pickilates is that anyone can do it!
