Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic exercise is one of the cornerstones of modern physiotherapy and an integral part of every comprehensive rehabilitation programme. It is a personalised form of exercise designed after a detailed assessment, taking into account the condition, the functional needs and the overall health of each patient.
Goal of Exercise
To reduce pain, restore mobility, increase strength and endurance, and improve balance and coordination. It also helps prevent new injuries and maintain good physical condition.
An exercise programme may include
Strengthening, mobility and balance exercises, aerobic exercise, movement retraining and breathing exercises.
Exercise Recommendation
The effectiveness of therapeutic exercise is supported by strong scientific evidence, and it is a key element of current clinical guidelines for the treatment of most conditions.
Return to activities
Each programme is adapted to the patient's abilities and goals and progresses gradually, with continuous guidance from the physiotherapist. The aim is a safe return to daily activities and a better quality of life.
