Exercise Therapy

Exercise therapy consists of stretching and/or strengthening maneuvers designed to develop the weakened or injured muscle groups of your spine or related areas (i.e. hips/pelvis). Quite often, by the time patients have arrived in our office, fibrous scar tissue has changed the elasticity and strength of an injured area. Rehabilitative exercises can help to restore better tone, flexibility and strength to these injured tissues.

Exercise therapy varies depending on your individual needs. Most patients are given a stretching routine when beginning care. As they progress both functionally and subjectively, new exercises may be introduced. At CommonHealth Chiropractic those exercise may include resistance training, core strengthening, and/or thera-ball exercises.
