Targeted Therapeutic Exercise

Targeted therapeutic exercise is a specialized method used in physical therapy to improve functionality, recover from injuries, and prevent future problems. This approach involves exercises designed to address the specific needs and goals of each patient.

Principle of Operation:

Therapeutic Benefits:

  • Injury Recovery: Helps restore tissues and muscles after injuries, promoting healing and the return to normal function.

  • Improved Mobility: Enhances joint mobility and muscle flexibility, facilitating the performance of daily activities.

  • Strength and Endurance Enhancement: Contributes to increasing muscle strength and endurance, improving overall physical condition.

Treatment Process:

  • Assessment: The physical therapist conducts a thorough evaluation of the patient, considering medical history, symptoms, and functional needs.

  • Program Design: A personalized exercise program is developed, including targeted exercises to improve the patient's specific condition.

  • Exercise Execution: The patient performs the exercises under the supervision of the physical therapist, who provides guidance and corrects the technique.
