  • Lie on your side on the Reformer carriage with your head supported (use the headrest or a cushion for comfort).
  • Position your hips and shoulders stacked, keeping your spine neutral.
  • Place the working foot on the foot bar, with the leg bent so the knee is in line with the hip and toes pointing forward.
  • The non-working leg can rest comfortably on the carriage or bend it slightly behind/in front for stability.
  • Hold onto the shoulder rest or frame for support if needed.
  • Inhale to prepare. As you exhale, press through the foot bar, extending your working leg until it is straight but not locked.
  • Inhale to bend the knee and return the carriage slowly with control, keeping alignment through the hip, knee, and foot.
  • Maintain stacked hips and avoid rocking forward or backward as you move.
  • Complete repetitions as prescribed by your physiotherapist.
