Therapeutic Exercise

Regular exercise is an important part of our lives. It helps to keep us healthy by maintaining the strength of our heart, lungs, bones, and muscles. Exercise releases natural painkillers called endorphins that are found in our bodies. These help to reduce pain, but they can also help to improve our mood and energy level, as well as helping us to sleep better.

Benefits of therapeutic exercise are:

• Improved range of motion in affected painful joints
• Corrected muscle inbalance and bad posture
• Reduced muscular tension
• Improved elastisity in conracted soft tissue
• Reduced pain
• Accelerated healing
• Inceased strength of weak or athorphic muscles
