Clinical Reformer Pilates
Using a Pilates reformer machine Reformer Pilates is an intense and dynamic core strengthening exercise. Working the centre of the body using the thighs and glutes to improve flexibility and balance. Our classes are all performed by a Chartered Physiotherapist.
Reformer Pilates is a form of dynamic stabilisation retraining performed by a qualified physiotherapist. It reconditions the body from the centre/core of the body, not only increasing body strength, but also by improving the functioning of these muscles. It proves to be an excellent way of treating lower back pain and preventing relapse. By strengthening the muscles that support the entire frame of the body, it also helps other conditions such as neck pain, knee pain and poor posture. It is a body conditioning exercise programme that targets the deep postural muscles of the abdomen, scapular region and entire spine, improving overall core stability and posture.
