What To Expect At Your Rehab Sessions
Why Exercise Rehab Matters For Long-Term Recovery
Passive treatments can help reduce symptoms, but long-term recovery often requires improving strength, movement control and load tolerance.
Exercise-based rehabilitation helps support lasting results and can reduce future injury risk.
Some clients progress from individual rehabilitation into structured group rehabilitation such as PhysioFit, or continue performance-focused recovery through return to sport rehabilitation programs.
