Exercise Therapy
Exercise therapy is a form of chiropractic treatment used to help manage pain,
rehabilitate damaged soft tissues such as muscles, ligament and tendons, and
restore normal range of motion and function.
The overall goal of an exercise therapy program is to promote healing and prevent
further damage and injury to your body's musculoskeletal system. Exercise programs
also help in minimizing scar tissue formation following an injury or surgery.
Most exercise programs are designed to improve cardiovascular conditioning
and bolster your strength. Many exercises involve flexing and extending specific
parts of the body.
As a patient, you play a pivotal role in the outcome of any therapeutic exercise
program. Your dedication to following the steps outlined in the program will
go a long way in ensuring its success.
