What is Gym Rehabilitation?
Gym rehabilitation is a structured and personalised exercise program designed to help maximise function for those with sports and/or exercise-based goals as well as individuals recovering from injuries, surgery, or, medical conditions. It focuses on restoring function, improving strength, flexibility and mobility, and, reducing the risk of further injuries. Evidence irrefutably shows that exercise is the most effective treatment for injuries in the long-term, frequently having better outcomes than surgery. Similarly, those suffering with chronic pain, appropriately administered exercise is overwhelmingly the best solution.

Benefits of Exercise Rehabilitation
- Improved Recovery: Tailored exercise advances recovery by targeting specific areas that need strengthening, promotes healing and avoids maladaptive compensation strategies.
- Pain Reduction: Rehabilitation exercises help alleviate pain by improving joint and muscle function, reducing inflammation, and de-threatening movement.
- Enhanced Mobility: Regular exercise improves range of motion and flexibility, making daily activities easier and more comfortable.
- Injury Prevention: Strengthening muscles and improving balance reduce the risk of future injuries.
- Functional Improvement: Rehabilitation exercises restore functional movement patterns, enhancing performance from daily tasks to high-level sports.
How Does Exercise Rehabilitation Work?
Exercise rehabilitation at Physiotherapy Active begins with an assessment by a qualified physiotherapist. This assessment includes evaluating various postures, functional movement and specific conditions. Based on this assessment, a personalised gym program is developed over a number of one on one sessions before the patient is ready to join our physiotherapy lead group exercise classes. Exercise may include:
- Strength Training: Using weights, resistance bands, and machines to build muscle strength and support joint stability.
- Flexibility Exercises: Stretching routines to improve flexibility and reduce muscle tension.
- Balance and Coordination: Exercises to enhance balance and prevent falls.
- Functional Training: Activities that mimic daily tasks to improve overall function and ease of movement.
