Long-Term Goals and Success
The goal of Physiotherapy is to improve the body, or enable patients to resume activities they like to do without pain or limitations. This is achieved by restoring strength, improving range of motion, correcting movement patterns, and dealing with pain. In general, this process takes a long period of time. Luckily, Dr. Danish Wellness Clinic provides every patient with a personalized at-home care plan that will help you make the most of your therapy.
Benefits
- Continuation of forward progression in rehabilitation: A patient that completes their home exercise program is more likely to excel in the one-on-one sessions at the clinic and experience fewer setbacks in rehabilitation.
- Increases level of mobility and endurance: Exercise at home is designed to continue the progress of the clinic visit by increasing a patient’s flexibility and stamina. A good home exercise program allows a patient to increase function and improve muscle memory so that progress is gained rather than lost from one visit to another.
- For some patients, Physiotherapy doesn’t end at discharge: A home exercise program can help a patient remain pain free and functional without having to pay for repeat visits.
Completing exercises at home teaches the body how to operate properly and develop muscle memory, meaning your body will learn to automatically move and function in the right way. You will progress more quickly and move closer to achieving goals. It might help you to think of doing exercises at home as a way to condition your body.
Doing your home exercise program is a crucial part of treatment and recovery. Although it can be hard to make time to add another activity to your daily routine, it will allow you to get better as quickly as possible, and avoid re-injury. Physiotherapists have your best interests in mind, so talk to them if you are having a hard time performing your exercises at home.
