49 years old, mother of 3 beautiful children and grandmother of 2 gorgeous boys. Kim has been a physical, energetic person all her life - and she LOVES paddle boarding.
4 year ago Kim's world changed. Having 2 small car accidents within 8 weeks (rear-ended whilst being stationary at lights) set off a condition Kim had lived with all her life without any problems. After several years of specialist’s appointments, injections and physio, Kim came to a screaming halt when she got stuck in the middle of the Swan River on her board. It was a challenge for Kim to make it back to shore safely. Then came the opioids followed by surgery, spinal fusion (which was a success). Inflammation in her pelvis and a torn hamstring - all Kim remember's hearing constantly was “it will take time to heal, be patient”. Well, Kim can tell you she has heard that saying a million times and it makes her eyes roll back each and every time. Kim was frustrated. Depression had kicked in. Kim was overweight. Unable to obtain full movement and strength in her body. And she still had pain to deal with and a belly full of opioids! What the heck?! This on top of life was very hard to deal with. Kim's mindset was consistently challenged - 'Here I go again!'
Kim was constantly telling herself to get her mindset in check and have another crack at it. Ultimately, Kim decided it was time to rebuild her body. There were setbacks, pain, frustration, and many tears. Her team of experts were trying to strengthen her core and back - which was causing her grief in her pelvis and hamstring. Kim kept on trying going back week after week, resting as told, taking more and more pain killers. At that point Kim would do anything to get herself stronger and to be able to do just the basic things a little easier and with less pain. One day Kim was sent to a sports clinic and met more medical experts. Kim was hoping this time would be different. The team of experts gave her confidence that they would help her build her body and get it back together without more surgery again. Kim tried the gym but would get so far and hit a brick wall with pain and ability to sustain the exercise. Kim did hydro and found the one thing her body got relief from was to hang. Her hydro lady suggested to also try Clinical Pilates. Kim knew what Pilates was but never heard of Clinical Pilates. It was there she was introduced to her saviour the Pilates Reformer. This changed her world. Kim has gotten stronger and stronger everyday. Now opioid and anti-depressant free. She can feel her body getting stronger from the inside out. Her mental state of health is coming back in leaps and bounds. Still on the recovery road but OMG so much happier and stronger! Pilates Reformer
Kim wanted one, but wasn’t sure how long she would use it for. No idea who rents them. No One, it seemed. Kim was hooked on the routine and regime and knew this was the machine for her. So, unable to hire one, she decided to buy one. Haha - try and find one that wasn’t going to cost an arm and a leg and she didn’t have to wait months and months for?! That's a battle and a half. So Kim did some research - Worldwide, Australia-wide and Local. And Kim finally found a local manufacturer who specialises sports equipment - right here in Perth. Absolute GOLD! Kim's heart and soul smiled - they beamed! A local, family-owned and operated business who have been manufacturing high-quality sport equipment for over 40 years. WA made - all proceeds stay in WA, too! This was THE perfect business for Kim to invest in...and the rest is history, and brings you here today! Where you can hire WA-made reformers, or buy your own custom made for YOU. Kim can guarantee her reformers will make you smile again too.
