Is a Pilates reformer good for osteoporosis?

Posted by debbik @debbik, 5 hours ago

I’m 67 and have osteoporosis and have had a back fracture. I try to exercise/walk several times a week. Recently I’ve been seeing Pilates studios with a machine called a reformer. These classes are pricey but to me it’s worth it if it truly does increase bone density. Has anyone tried this and seen positive results, or heard anything about it?
