❓What is The Reformer❓The reformer was invented by Joseph Pilates, founder of this fantastic exercise regime.nnThe Reformer has a bed-like frame on top of which is a platform called the carriage. The carriage moves back and forth on wheels that are attached to the frame. nnOn one end of the carriage is a set of springs, each with different levels of resistance. The number of springs that are attached can be varied to provide differing levels of exercise intensity as the carriage is pushed along the frame by the student.nnAn adjustable height bar, called a footbar, can be found at the spring end of the carriage. At the opposite end of the Reformer are long lengths of rope to which handles or foot loops are attached nnThe straps are attached to the students legs or arms to move the carriage against the selected spring resistance, thus providing resistance based exercise for the limbs whilst simletaneously challenging the core.nnThe entire machine and its component parts are fully adjustable which makes the machine suitable for differing body sizes and different levels of skill! Exercises can be done lying down, side lying, all fours, sitting, standing, pulling the straps, pushing the foot-bar….the options are limitless!nnAt Pure Balance we specialise in helping clients with muscle, joint and skeletal problems: Our machine studio houses the Reformer, Cadillac, Ladder Barrel and Combo Chair - Each piece facilitating the necessary adaptations to be made to traditional Pilates exercises that some students would otherwise find very difficult to achieve using the mat alone.nn💪 Book your 1-2-1 Pilates session with Lyn: purebalancepilates.co.uk/contact...
