Pilates Reformer
A reformer is a piece of Pilates equipment that has fantastic versatility for providing strength and mobility exercises for every part of the body. The reformer consists of a moving carriage with adjustable spring tension, a bar and straps, plus other additions which can be used to lengthen and strengthen throughout the body.
Individualised, tailor made programs are possible with a 1 hour in-depth assessment, then one-on-one sessions on the reformer, and are a fantastic adjunct to strength and conditioning sessions.
