MOVE BETTER. FEEL STRONGER. 🌿
Reformer Pilates isnโt just about fitness โ itโs about helping your body move with more ease, strength and confidence.
At 4Lane Physiotherapy, our Physio-led Pilates classes are designed to be gentle on the joints while helping improve strength, mobility and control.
Originally developed by Joseph Pilates in the early 20th century, Pilates focuses on small, controlled movements that target posture, stability and muscle control. By strengthening the muscles surrounding the joints, Pilates can help reduce strain in areas such as the hips, knees, back, and shoulders. This often helps clients feel more comfortable during everyday activities such as walking, standing, sitting, lifting and exercising.
✨ Benefits of Reformer Pilates may include:
✔️ Reduced pressure on hips, knees & joints
✔️ Improved posture & balance
✔️ Increased flexibility & strength
✔️ Better movement control
✔️ Improved breathing awareness
✔️ Greater confidence with movement
✔️ Easier walking, standing & daily activities
One of the major benefits of Reformer Pilates is its adaptability. The spring resistance on the reformer machines can be adjusted to suit your individual needs, whether you are managing pain, returning from injury, building strength or simply wanting to move better. This allows exercises to be modified to suit participants from beginners to more advanced participants.
You also do not need to be flexible, fit or coordinated to get started. Many people are surprised at how accessible reformer Pilates can be, especially when guided by Physiotherapy staff who understand injuries, pain and movement limitations.
💚 One of the biggest advantages of our classes?
Every session is supervised by Physiotherapy staff, meaning your individual needs are always considered and exercises can be tailored to help you move safely and effectively.
For best results, we recommend attending at least once per week to build consistency, strength and confidence in your movement.
And yesโฆ every class starts lying down 😌
