Margo Rankin

"In 1998, after more than a decade of training and teaching in the health and fitness industry I set out to offer three powerful approaches to enhance health and wellbeing—Pilates training, Ka Huna Massage and Colon Hydrotherapy.”

As Director of the Center of Wellbeing and Awareness, Margo provides a very unique combination of therapies.

Pilates

Margo began her Pilates training in 1995, and became a qualified instructor in 1996.

Margo currently holds a Pilates Practitioner Certificate with the Australian Pilates Method Association (APMA).

She is also currently accredited with Body Arts and Science (USA), and holds a Level 3 Accreditation with Alliance

Level 1 Accreditation underway for 'Network' with Michael King.

Ka Huna Massage

Often calling this the 'Rolls-Royce of massage', Margo chose Ka Huna as her favourite form of massage after training and teaching in massage since 1988.

Locally, Margo has taught Remedial and Sports massage at the Om Shanti College of Tactile Therapies.

Colon Hydrotherapy

Margo became interested in Colon Hydrotherapy as a way to assist clients to achieve greater balance in their health. Trained in Pheonix Arizona (USA) with 'Specialty Health Products', Margo holds the necessary licenses to practice Colon Hydrotherapy. This aspect of the Center has been deemed an official medical practice by ACT Health.

Community

As an active member of the Canberra sporting community since 1992, Margo has held a long-standing relationship with the local PCYC, providing many years of support and work in the areas of 'weights-programming' and Pilates Mat Classes.

Canberra Raiders

During the tri-series of the late 90s, Margo worked as a massage therapist and sports-water-training specialist.

Testimonials

"Margo makes exercise fun. Pilates has given me strength, flexibility and a pain free life. I'd had a back injury for several years. After a few months of Pilates the condition had improved a great deal. I rarely need pain relief drugs and I can get on with my life'

Jocelyn, ACT.

"Margo's greatest asset is her genuine concern for her clients. She takes a personal interest in their particular problem or goal. Through my participation in Pilates for approximately 15 months I am now pain free, even though I have a chronic lower back problem. My posture has improved. My golf handicap has improved by 2-3 strokes. I can drive my car for any number of hours where before I had sciatica after approximately 1 to 2 hours. I can highly recommend Margo and Pilates to any prospective clients."
