What is a reformer and what benefits does using one provide?
What is a Reformer? The Reformer is one of the larger pieces of equipment. It consists of a carriage (small platform) that glides back and forth on rollers and uses springs for resistance, along with other attachments for a wide variety of exercises that can be done in a variety of positions (i.e. lying down, seated, standing, kneeling, etc). The picture you see here (top of page) is our Rehab-Reformer. This Reformer is higher off the ground to make it easier to use for people with back, knee, and hip issues who may have a more difficult time or are not able to exercise on the floor. There is also a framework that allows for an even broader range of exercises to choose from than the regular Reformer.
