EXERCISE THERAPY

Exercise therapy is a specialized approach to improving posture, addressing musculoskeletal imbalances, and enhancing overall body alignment and function. It involves a combination of targeted exercises, stretches, and postural correction techniques to address postural deviations, reduce pain, and optimize movement patterns. The goal of exercise/postural therapy is to identify and address the underlying causes of poor posture and musculoskeletal imbalances. 

During an exercise therapy session, I will assess your posture and movement patterns to identify any misalignments or imbalances. I may analyze how you sit, stand, walk, and perform specific movements or activities. Based on the assessment, I will develop a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs.

The therapy sessions may involve a variety of exercises and stretches targeted at strengthening weak muscles, releasing tension in tight muscles, and retraining the body to adopt proper alignment and movement patterns. These exercises may focus on stability, flexibility, strength, balance, and coordination.

Postural correction techniques may also be incorporated to help you become more aware of your posture throughout daily activities. This can include instruction on optimal sitting and standing positions, ergonomics, and strategies for maintaining good posture during various tasks.

Exercise therapy aims to not only improve your posture but also address any associated pain, discomfort, or limitations in movement. By addressing these issues, it can help reduce the risk of injuries, enhance athletic performance, and improve overall functional capacity.

Additionally, exercise therapy often includes education and guidance on self-care strategies, such as lifestyle modifications, home exercises, and postural awareness techniques that you can incorporate into your daily routine. These empower you to take an active role in maintaining proper posture and optimizing your musculoskeletal health.

It's important to note that exercise therapy is often tailored to your specific needs and goals. The duration and frequency of therapy sessions will vary depending on the severity of your condition and your progress over time. By working closely with me, you can expect to experience improvements in posture, reduced pain, enhanced movement efficiency, and a greater overall sense of well-being.
