Exercise Therapy
Q. Can I not just exercise on my own?
A.
Exercise done without knowing the cause of the injury can do harm. We start after identifying which movement is the problem.
📝 Detailed Answer
Exercise in general and rehabilitation exercise are not the same. Exercise done without knowing why the injury happened can do harm rather than help.
However good the treatment you receive, the possibility of recurrence is always open. Alongside relieving the pain, and with equal weight, we need to analyse the movement and find the pattern that is causing trouble.
If any of the following applies, we suggest looking at exercise therapy as well.
- Exercising keeps bringing on pain
- Moving an arm or leg joint is uncomfortable
- An injury during exercise has reduced what you can do
