Exercise Therapy
Exercise Therapy is best defined as a treatment plan of physical activities through gait training, neuro reduction, and therapeutic activities. This exercise regime is designed and prescribed to assist patients in recovering from diseases and conditions that interfere with their movement, daily activities, or well-being.
Exercise therapy is a type of rehabilitation that uses physical activity to help treat injuries or conditions. It can be used independently or with other treatments like medication or surgery.
