Arion Faria
Arion has a degree in Physiotherapy and is a highly skilled and experienced clinical Pilates, hydrotherapy, and massage practitioner.
Following an extensive five-year Physiotherapy degree, which included on-site training in hospitals, GP practices and in the broader community dealing directly with patient care, Arion graduated from Unifeso, Teresoplis, Brazil in 2010. He subsequently broadened his knowledge and expert skill set, completing his clinical Pilates training with Instituto Vital Fit in Rio de Janeiro in 2015.
We welcomed Arion to the UK and CorefitPhysio in 2021 and he is an invaluable part of our team. Dedicated in equal measure to the principles of precise movement executed with ease and fluidity and the careful needs and ambitions of our clients, Arion delivers highly skilled creative Reformer Pilates and Matwork sessions, as well as Private, Duo, Trio and closed group machine Pilates sessions. He incorporates his extensive physiotherapy and Pilates experience in rehabilitation into his carefully layered classes, delivering great insight and benefit to our post-rehab clients in particular.
In addition, Arion is a highly sought-after massage therapist, with an expert focus on Sports and Deep Tissue Massage and Ayurvedic treatments. Putting long-term wellness at the heart of all he does, Arion advocates the importance of incorporating massage into every client’s wellbeing regime, not only to help specific conditions (including postoperative care, scar tissue, soft tissue strains and injuries, digestive disorders, fibromyalgia, headache, insomnia, nerve pain, and sports injuries) but also to speed recovery between workouts, improve flexibility, lessen pain and joint inflammation, strengthen immune response, improve circulation, manage stress or anxiety and aid sleep.
This passionate, holistic approach to physical health and wellbeing allows Arion to create excellent outcomes for our clients both in and out of practice.
