What is Clinical Reformer Pilates?
Reformer Pilates, much like mat Pilates, focuses on exercises based on quality and control of movement. The exercises focus on areas of weakness and work the deep muscles that play a vital role in reducing pain and preventing injury.
Reformer Pilates is based around the use of – THE REFORMER – the basic frame has a moveable carriage which is loaded by a number of springs that attach the carriage to the frame. The carriage slides within the frame and the springs provide varying resistance, either to assist or resist exercises. There are accessory ropes and pulleys attached to the carriage and frame, these can provide additional help or challenge depending on the exercise and the needs of the individual!
The Reformer provides feedback to the neuromuscular system, enabling the user to focus on the specific areas that need targeting. Using the Reformer, helps you correct technique with a supported posture and with the option to add resistance.
The Reformer is a whole-body workout improving posture, stability, flexibility, stamina and strength, as well as a tool to rehabilitate following injury or help manage long standing conditions such as degenerative arthritis. Our sessions are run by our expert, clinically qualified Pilates Instructors who will be able to provide a bespoke programme just for you.
What does a Reformer session involve?
