EXERCISE THERAPY
We are all aware of the fact that life is motion. However, apart from being a known maxim, it is also an extremely efficient therapeutic and recovery strategy. The very fact that exercise therapy is a separate branch of medicine says all about its effectiveness. Rehabilitation fitness is a treatment method that combines a variety of specially designed exercises, as well as walking and movement routines. The routines are patient-specific, developed individually for each patient. All exercises are performed with certain timing and correct breathing techniques.
Rehabilitation fitness is most effective in the following cases:
- Various back conditions (scoliosis, degenerative spine disease)
- Joints conditions (arthritis, arthrosis )
- Club foot and flat foot
- Various muscle conditions
- Post-stroke and heart attack after-care treatment
- Post-injury, fracture or dislocation treatment
Rehabilitation fitness is most effective in combination with osteopathic treatment and massage.
What will I do during the rehabilitation fitness appointment?
During the exercise therapy appointment you will perform a routine of individually developed exercises in an equipped gym with the therapist’s guidance. Normally the routine takes 40 to 60 minutes. The routines designed for children involve ball and skip rope games, as well as stretch mats.
.
Who can benefit most from rehabilitation fitness?
Exercise therapy is most beneficial for children, both younger and teen age, as their musculoskeletal system is still in active growth phase. This is why it is in younger age that poor posture, scoliosis, flat or club foot treatment is most effective.
Can I expect long-lasting results from rehabilitation treatment?
Normally you can expect the exercise therapy results to last up to 6 months. However, adhering to your therapist’s recommendations and properly performing the recommended post-therapy exercise routine individually, you can prolong the results indefinitely.
