Rehabilitation Training

Sports therapy always advocates exercise.  Exercise is about stretching tight muscle groups or strengthening weak ones, or even a combination of both.

Health promotion is extremely important for physical, mental, emotional and psychological health.  Exercise releases endorphins that give the "feel good factor" and reduces pain signals.

The American College of Sports Medicine recommends at least five sessions of exercise per week at a minimum of 30 minutes.  To achieve cardiovascular fitness you need to work hard enough to raise the heart levels and increase respiratory rate of breathing,

A person may stretch with just a five minute exercise program and gradually build up as the body adapt.  Training will include core stabilisation, cardio, strength and stretching.

Every exercise plan will be individually tailored according to their particular requirements and needs.  It is essential to achieve stability of the core muscles, improve proprioception and undertake corrective exercises before moving onto a more general fitness programs.
