THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE
What's included - Benefits
One of the most important aspects of physical therapy in sports injury rehabilitation that we place special emphasis on is focusing on exercises that help strengthen the injured area and prevent future injuries. This may include strengthening exercises to improve flexibility, balance and proprioception (awareness of body position and movement). These exercises help improve the overall strength and stability of the injured area, which can reduce the risk of re-injury.
