Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic exercise is that which is prescribed to correct physical impairments, restore function, maintain a state of well-being, or some combination thereof. It may vary from highly selected activities restricted to specific muscles or parts of the body, to general and vigorous activities that can return a convalescing patient to the peak of physical condition.
More about Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic exercise improves overall health and quality of life, benefiting the musculoskeletal, metabolic, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems. Ideally, any rehabilitation is about restoring function to an injured part or portion of the body, but it can be beneficial even when the future holds only further deterioration, as in the case of a palliative-care setting.
In someone who has been injured or ill, the benefits of therapeutic exercise include recovery and the restoration of function and range of motion, increased cardiopulmonary reserve and function, and the more effective management of disease, such as diabetes. But it demands a certain level of commitment as it involves engaging in a variety of repeated, regular activities, such as endurance training, resistance training, flexibility training, and range-of-motion exercises.
