Physiotherapy Reformer Pilates Program Overview

What is Physiotherapy Reformer Pilates?

The Physiotherapy Reformer Pilates Program at Lost ‘n Found Yoga incorporates the use of a Pilates Reformer and Pilates exercises as part of an exercise program prescribed by a Registered Physiotherapist. Reformer Pilates is an excellent way to treat pain, injuries, stiffness or soreness, and is a path to regaining lost mobility due to these conditions. Reformer Pilates is a unique, low impact modality that is amazing for targeting specific muscle imbalances and weaknesses in a gentle, yet very effective manner. Many patients in our program have seen dramatic changes in their bodies, often after just a few sessions.
