Your rehab specialist will develop a personalized exercise and stretching plan to address your areas of muscle weakness or tightness and improve your range of motion and overall physical function.

What Happens During a Rehabilitation Session?

You should arrive wearing comfortable athletic clothing that you can exercise in. Your rehab specialist will start your session gently with a warm-up, which may include walking or riding a stationary bicycle.

Once your body is warmed up, your provider will take you through a series of exercises and stretches that target your areas of pain or weakness. Your provider will stay with you throughout your session to ensure you’re able to perform all of your exercises safely.

Most rehabilitation sessions last about an hour. You can bring water and a towel to your session if you’d like.

What Should I do After Rehabilitation?

Your doctor will provide exercises and stretches you can do at home or at your local gym to maintain your strength and flexibility after each rehab session. By following your doctor’s plan, you can raise your chances of staying healthy and lower your risk of getting injured in the future.

Research shows that many causes of back and joint pain stem from muscle weakness, lack of coordination, and inflexibility. Maintaining your rehab routine after your program has finished can help you feel better and enjoy the activities you love without pain or discomfort.
