Pilates at Inline Health Chiropractic
Reformer Pilates
Reformer Pilates is a form of Pilates exercise performed on a specialized piece of equipment called a Reformer.
This apparatus consists of a flat platform (the carriage) that moves back and forth along tracks within a frame. The carriage is attached to springs, which provide varying levels of resistance.

Key Features of Reformer Pilates
Equipment-Based Exercise
The Reformer enhances traditional mat Pilates by adding resistance, which helps build strength, improve flexibility, and increase overall control.
Springs can be adjusted to modify the intensity of each exercise, making it suitable for beginners, intermediate, and advanced practitioners.
The exercises target the core while simultaneously working on arms, legs, back, and shoulders, promoting balance and symmetry in the body.
Low Impact
Reformer Pilates provides a joint-friendly workout, making it ideal for rehabilitation, injury prevention, and individuals with joint sensitivities.
Focus on Precision and Control
Similar to traditional Pilates, Reformer exercises emphasize proper alignment, controlled movements, and mindful breathing.
Exercises can be performed lying down, sitting, standing, or even on one side, offering a wide range of movements that challenge stability and coordination.
Benefits of Reformer Pilates
- Improved Posture: Strengthens postural muscles and enhances alignment.
- Core Strength: Activates deep abdominal and pelvic floor muscles.
- Increased Flexibility: Promotes greater range of motion in joints and muscles.
- Enhanced Athletic Performance: Builds functional strength and stability.
- Stress Relief: Incorporates breathwork that encourages relaxation and mindfulness.
Our reformer Pilates instructors have a certification to teach Pilates at a minimum.
Clinical Pilates
Clinical Pilates is tailored to address specific health conditions, injuries, or rehabilitation goals under the guidance of a trained physiotherapist.
Key Features of Clinical Pilates
Individualized Programs
Exercises are customized based on a thorough assessment of your physical condition, including posture, muscle imbalances, strength, and flexibility
It is commonly used to manage musculoskeletal conditions, recover from surgery or injury, and address chronic pain issues like back pain, neck pain, or joint problems.
Physiotherapists are trained to understand biomechanics, injury pathology, and appropriate progressions, ensuring the exercises are safe and effective.
Low-Impact, Controlled Movements
The exercises emphasize core strength, stability, balance, and control, which help improve functional movement patterns.
Clinical Pilates often incorporates specialized equipment like reformers, stability balls, and resistance bands, alongside mat-based exercises.
By addressing the underlying causes of poor movement patterns or muscular imbalances, clinical Pilates helps reduce the risk of re-injury.

How It Differs from Traditional Pilates
Instructor Expertise
Clinical Pilates is led by a physiotherapist with in-depth knowledge of anatomy and injury management.
Medical Focus
Tailored for therapeutic and rehabilitative purposes rather than general fitness.
Individual Attention
Often conducted in one-on-one or small group settings to ensure personalized care.
This type of Pilates is an excellent option for those recovering from injury or managing chronic conditions, as well as individuals looking to improve their movement efficiency and prevent injuries. All NDIS patients as well as WorkSafe, DVA, and TAC clients are eligible to attend our clinical Pilates classes conducted by a qualified physiotherapist. Prices for physiotherapy-led classes may be greater than listed for classes run by normal Pilates instructors.
Virtual (Instructor-Less) Pilates Memberships

Users can choose when and where to practice, making it suitable for those with busy or irregular schedules.
Videos may range from short, targeted workouts (e.g., core strengthening or stretching) to full-length sessions. Some platforms offer personalized plans or playlists to help users stay consistent.
Benefits
