WHAT IS REFORMER PILATES?
THE REFORMER MACHINES AT OUR STUDIO just west of BURPHAM… QUITE SIMPLY REFORM!
The ‘Reformer’ is the name given to the platform and frame used in reformer Pilates. Possibly the most famous piece of Pilates equipment alongside the other darlings of the Hollywood A-set, the Cadillac and Wunderchair. Within the frame, there is a fixed platform one end, and a sliding mat-like section called the ‘carriage’. The carriage moves forwards and backwards on runners, attached to the platform by a set of springs. These springs provide strong, medium, or low resistance as the carriage is moved. There’s an adjustable foot bar and long straps with hand/foot loops, which are used to work the legs and arms, and shoulder blocks stabilising you when you’re working out.
“The team at CorefitPhysio (Westcott, near Burpham, Guildford) have genuinely changed my life and kept me working without pain for years longer than I ever imagined possible. I tell everyone about how fantastic their Reformer Pilates is and how professional and dedicated the team at CorefitPhysio is.”
A reformer Pilates machine can be used in a huge range of ways to benefit strength, flexibility, and balance. Classes often include the use of small Pilates equipment including balls, Pilates rings, ankle weights, resistance bands, a balance mat, and an integrated block for added impact, interest, and challenge. Book a 45-minute introductory session with one of our amazing Physio team and let us introduce you to the Reformer Revolution!
In short, our physio-led Reformer sessions are safe, challenging, effective, and fun for all.
GETTING STARTED
LET YOUR JOURNEY BEGIN
“I first went to CorefitPhysio to get help with a shoulder injury and the team there have been amazing. I am now a complete convert to reformer Pilates and would highly recommend the studio whether you are a beginner or a seasoned pro!”
Feeling inspired? Let’s get you started.
Your first step to getting into a Reformer or Machine Pilates session with us would be in the form of an appointment in Practice for a Physical Baseline Assessment or Full Biomechanical Assessment (MOT) with a member of our senior physio team.
During this session, we will take a history of your physical condition, look at your movement using Pilates exercises to assess you, as well giving you a brief introduction to Reformer and machine-based Pilates. We will explain our findings and give you a small selection of home exercises to get you going in preparation for your next session with us. We will discuss which session types (Privates or Group Classes) may be most beneficial for you and together you and the physio will agree on a goal-led plan to target your specific needs and wants.
We also offer a ‘Getting Started’ package which is a beautiful bundle of Physical Baseline Assessment, Group Reformer Pilates session, and a Dynamic Matwork class offering a saving of 15%.

REFORMER/MACHINE PILATES – PRE & POST-SURGERY (Prehab/Rehab)
Prehab: Our physio-led reformer Pilates sessions focus on strength, stability, and balance using low-impact exercises and controlled movement to protect your joints. In each session, we will work with you to develop a progressive programme of movements and exercises aimed at avoiding injury, decreasing pain, and preparing for your surgery. This helps to identify issues in strength, stability, range of motion, balance, and overall joint function, getting your mind and body ready for what it will be like after your surgery.
Rehab: Our physio-led Reformer Pilates sessions do not exacerbate but help to reduce pain and offer safe gradual strengthening which is both effective and low-impact. We will work with you to develop a progressive programme of movements and exercises using the Reformer machine to adjust resistance and gradually increase it as your recovery progresses; gentle on the joints, controlled and physio-led at every stage.
Regular sessions for prehab or rehab Pilates at our Studio just 20-minutes from Burpham will help to strengthen your muscles for faster recovery along with strengthening the tissues around your joints to help joint mobility return more swiftly. Read Simon’s Testimonial

This significantly reduces the risk of back and pelvic pain and there is great evidence to suggest that women who regularly exercise their core muscles during pregnancy experience shorter labours.

“What started as a solution to continuous running injuries, has become a part of mid-life strategy for bone density and weight bearing. Thanks to weekly reformer classes with Helen and Arion, my core feels strong and I’m running with less frequent injuries, as well as being better informed about how to best protect my body. But CorefitPhysio is so much more than Pilates or physio. The talented and lovely people who work there really care about your wellbeing, which comes through in every interaction and advice.
