What is Exercise Therapy?

Exercise Therapy is the method used to help you recover from musculoskeletal conditions. These are disorders that affect your tendons, nerves, muscles and supporting structures like spinal discs. Examples of musculoskeletal conditions include Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Tennis Elbow.

Following exercise therapy, problems that cause these disorders are addressed. Through therapeutic exercises the muscles, tendons and other affected parts are lengthened and strengthened. So you become more mobile and with reduced or resolved pain.

You may think that using the body parts that cause you pain will only do you further harm, but this isn't the case. By ignoring the condition and not using the affected parts, problems often become worse. It's different when you follow graded exercise therapy. You will gradually regain mobility and see reduction in pain and discomfort.

Graded exercise therapy can be used to treat many conditions. Whether you need meniscus tear exercises, or struggle with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or ME or Multiple sclerosis, exercise can help ease symptoms.
