MOTION IS LOTION
What is Therapeutic Exercise?
Therapeutic exercise involves a carefully prescribed program of physical movements designed to restore strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination. These exercises are tailored to each individual’s needs and recovery goals, and are often used in combination with manual therapy or other physiotherapy techniques. Therapeutic exercise has many benefits and is an effective, non-invasive way to support healing, improve mobility, and prevent future injuries.
How Therapeutic Exercise Relieves Pain
Therapeutic exercise is particularly effective in managing chronic pain conditions, including low back pain, arthritis, and postural dysfunction. By improving muscle strength, joint stability, and overall movement patterns, it helps reduce strain on painful areas and supports long-term recovery. Regular, guided exercise also promotes circulation, reduces inflammation, and enhances body awareness. As part of an evidence-based physiotherapy program, therapeutic exercise plays a crucial role in relieving pain and restoring optimal function.
