MARCH 2022 SPECIALS

What is Pilates Reformer, you ask? 

The reformer was invented by Joseph Pilates and is a bed-like frame with a flat platform that rolls back and forth on wheels. It is an apparatus used as a part of a Pilates exercise session under the direction of an instructor that uses springs for assistance and resistance to achieve proper muscle length and strength in an organized way. The reformer assists the individual in achieving the goals of Pilates, which include the use of diaphragmatic breathing to organize the body’s posture through coordinated movements with an emphasis on postural control.

Is Pilates Reformer a good workout for me?

The Pilates reformer is best for individuals who are seeking to achieve core stability and good postural alignment. Pilates reformer can be a great workout for anyone, though. Both the equipment and the exercises can be modified and adjusted to any body, which makes it perfect for those looking to tone up, rehab from an injury, train for a particular hobby or sport, or for those looking for low impact, full-body workout.

What results will I see from Pilates Reformer?

The reformer accommodates a full range of motion, which is great for increasing flexibility while building strength. The pushing and pulling with the arms and legs against the resistance of the springs, carriage and body weight makes this a unique strength-building full-body workout. Specifically, when you hold the cables in your hands or put your feet in the cables, you allow your muscles to extend to the fullest position. The reformer is able to target your arms and legs while still focusing on the core, providing a more comprehensive workout.

Now available in studio with Greta Weeks, Fascial Stretch Therapy (FST) is a unique therapy system of assisted stretching which focuses on increasing mobility of muscles, joints and connective tissue. 

While on the treatment table, Greta will help you stabilize your body as you are gently guided into specific stretches to facilitate relaxation, healing movement and tissue release. This technique involves constant motion and glide through the entire body, moving through the myofascial meridians, therapeutically addressing these movements through gentle traction which grants clients access to limited or unused ranges of motion. 

FST can reduce or eliminate back pain, prevent injuries, enhance performance, improve posture and reduce overall stress.
