Knee acting up on long walks? Hips feeling stiff when you sit? Or maybe your shoulder’s been nagging every time you reach overhead? If joint pain is getting in the way of everyday life, it’s time to look at an option that’s gentle, effective, and backed by real results—Reformer Pilates.

At ARC Rehabilitation & Pilates, we combine expert rehabilitation knowledge with the power of the Reformer to ease joint pain and build lasting strength. Whether you're new to movement or already active, our structured class system has a place for you.

We offer Four Levels of Reformer Pilates. Our first two levels focus on building back movement safely—ideal for beginners or those recovering from injury. Higher levels provide more of a challenge for those ready to progress.

And with small group classes led by qualified Rehabilitation Specialists, you get the benefit of close attention and a plan that’s shaped around you—your history, your pain, and your goals.

Wondering how Reformer Pilates can help sore joints feel better?

Builds Strength Where You Need It Most
Many people with joint pain have weak supporting muscles—think glutes, thighs, or upper back. The Reformer lets us safely activate and strengthen these key areas without placing extra pressure on the joints themselves. That means more support, better function, and less pain in the long run.

Promotes Healthy Movement
When joints are stiff or inflamed, movement can feel awkward or limited. Reformer Pilates uses guided, low-impact motion to restore smooth movement patterns. Over time, you’ll notice improved ease when bending your knees, rotating your shoulders, or getting up and down from a chair.

Restores Balance and Control
Sometimes, joint pain is a sign that your body’s moving out of sync—maybe one side’s overworking or your posture’s shifted. On the Reformer, we focus on symmetry, control, and muscle balance to correct those patterns and reduce unnecessary strain.

Tailored Support in Every Class
One of the things our clients love most is that no two bodies are treated the same. Our sessions are designed with your personal needs in mind, with careful progressions and modifications available every step of the way. You’re never left guessing.

The Big Picture: Long-Term Relief
Quick fixes might dull the ache temporarily—but at ARC, we’re all about long-term solutions. Reformer Pilates gives you the tools to improve how your joints work and feel—not just for now, but for years to come.

If joint pain is holding you back, it doesn’t have to stay that way. Get in touch today to book your Initial Consultation and see how Reformer Pilates can help you return to doing the things you love—without pain getting in the way.
