Equipment Pilates
Pilates can be performed on very specialised pieces of equipment, such as the reformer, cadillac, wunda chair, spine corrector, ladder barrel, just to name a few. Using equipment, pilates becomes more specific and specialised as bodyparts can be supported and resistance can be added or taken away.
The repertoire of exercises that can be performed on the equipment is endless, meaning that you will never become bored with your program.
At REVIVE we strongly recommend equipment pilates for anyone with musculo-skeletal or medical issues such as back or neck pain, fibromyalgia, joint pain or stiffness, pregnancy etc.
 When starting equipment Pilates, we have a basic requirement that you complete three hours of one-on-one training with a physiotherapist and instructor. During these sessions you will be assessed and taught the basic principles of Pilates, your deep abdominal muscles will be scanned with a "real-time" ultrasound machine and your program will be formulated with your specific needs in mind.
Once your instructor is satisfied that you are ready, you are able to participate in group sessions with up to two other clients to one instructor.
Some people may prefer to continue training one-on-one for the closer attention of the instructor.
Pilates equipment training is a superior workout in many ways - your program is designed specifically for you and your needs following an in depth assessment with an experienced physiotherapist. The increased specificity and intensity of the workout means you will see faster and more noticable resutlts . We recommend that all pilates participants do at least 2 equipment sessions per week to see results. These sessions run throughout the day on the hour. Once you have completed your initial three sessions you will be eligible to start group training and you just need to book your preferred times in advance to reserve your permanent bookings.
