Therapeutic Exercise

Physiotherapists are the experts at incorporating specific therapeutic exercise into the recovery from an injury.

New research has illustrated that restoration of motor control, body awareness and automatic muscle activity is critical for optimal function.

Specific therapeutic exercise should only be undertaken once normal joint and soft tissue mobility is regained. Research supports that the proper muscle activation pattern and timing must be restored prior to any strengthening program.
