Therapeutic exercises are movements and physical activities designed to restore function and flexibility, improve strength and decrease pain. If you are receiving physical therapy for an injury or a chronic condition, your physical therapist may incorporate therapeutic exercises in your treatment plan.
3 Approaches:
- Active exercise is movement of a body part against gravity, or with additional weight for resistance.
- Active-assisted exercise is movement of a body part with help from another part of the body – using one arm to help lift the other, or with help from the therapist.
- Passive exercise fully relies on the therapist or another part of the patient’s body to lift the injured limb.
