A system of springs and pulleys that supports the body to help strengthen and stretch it while learning control and maintaining optimal body alignment.
Its name is due to its resemblance to a medieval chair. It is an extended version of the wunda chair, which helps strengthen and balance hips, buttocks and legs.
Invented by Joseph Pilates, this apparatus is carefully crafted to ease bunion pain, strengthen muscles, and reestablish proper alignment in the lower body. Malleable toe loops and a professional-grade center spring make this intuitive device ideal for strengthening both hip flexors and gluteal muscles. By correcting how the foot interacts with the joints and muscles of the hip, weight is able to be evenly supported by the entire lower body rather than being unnecessarily concentrated near the big toe.
When pressure is evenly distributed throughout the hips and legs, movements become gentler and more controlled. Practitioners who suffer from bunions will find this device to be an especially important part of their Pilates routine. Combined with your existing Pilates practice, our Toe Exerciser will help lengthen the spine, strengthen the hip, and realign the lower body, leading to more effective movements overall.
The biggest and perhaps most luxurious of all Pilates machines. It offers an impressive array of exercises.
Similar to the Cadillac, it enables several people to work safely while keeping the authenticity of the method.
It helps to stretch the lower back, open the hips, tone the muscles and improve posture.
The chair was designed to be used in small apartments for clients wishing to exercise alone. When it is converted, the wunda chair allows the user to perform complete series of exercises for a maximum effect.
It stretches the fascia of the soles of the feet muscles, it strengthens the feet muscles and truly connects and lifts the arches of the feet into the midline muscles of the body, strengthening the metatarsals, souls of the feet, ankles and pelvic girdle, promoting a fantastic stability for the entire body.
The well-rounded surface of the barrel supports healthy spinal movements that we often ignore, such as extension and side-bending. Performing these movements regularly, promotes optimal mobility, flexibility, and strength of the spine. The Ladder Barrel’s broad arc creates a safe and more easily attainable environment to practice extension and side bending for even the most novice Pilates student.
