Reformer for Pain Management

The Pilates Reformer was originally designed with people in pain in mind. The machine was designed by Joseph Pilates after he created exercise plans for injured, and bed-ridden soldiers in hospital during World War I. He used bed springs and overhead pulleys to aid and assist movement. He was one of the leaders in the field of rehabilitation and exercise medicine, providing evidence that movement is good for us, even when we are injured or sick.
* Evidence based research confirms full-body, progressive movement is good for back pain, and helps to prevent protracted recovery.
* The Reformer ASSISTS full body movement with its unique pulley and string mechanism and various starting positions, enabling you to find your most comfortable, supported position to begin moving in.
* The Reformer provides a way for every Body to move, build strength, balance and flexibility, working with individual pain levels and capabilities.
* The Reformer encourages diaphragmatic breathing, supported, controlled and mindful movement, and supports the body to reduce load.
