Oov®
Inventor Daniel Vladeta, D.O., created the Oov to follow the spine’s natural curves while encouraging three-dimensional movement. By activating core stability and gently extending the spine, it builds a strong foundation for functional movement.
Functional movement simply means moving the way we do in everyday life—using multiple joints, working across different planes, and moving with efficiency. When movement patterns are inefficient, they can contribute to chronic pain or overuse injuries. The genius of the Oov lies in its ability to heighten body awareness and provide instant feedback, guiding the body toward healthier, more efficient patterns.
At Infinity Pilates, we use the Oov on its own or alongside Pilates equipment to support functional movement and deepen your overall practice.
