What are the benefits of Reformer Pilates?
Reformer Pilates strengthens the whole body. The Reformer offers all the benefits of Pilates including overall strength, flexibility, coordination, and utilises the weighted springs for resistance. This leads to daily life improvements like better posture, efficient movement, and for many, relief from pain associated with physical imbalances such as lower back pain.
