Rehabilitative exercises
Rehabilitative exercises, also known as therapeutic exercises, are specific physical activities designed to restore or improve strength, flexibility, endurance, coordination, and balance in individuals recovering from injury, surgery, or medical conditions. These exercises are typically prescribed and supervised by healthcare professionals such as physical therapists, occupational therapists, or chiropractors as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation program tailored to the individual’s needs and goals.
individual’s condition and stage of recovery but commonly include:
Restoring range of motion
After injury or surgery, joints and muscles may become stiff or immobile. Rehabilitative exercises aim to gently mobilize and stretch these tissues to restore normal range of motion.
Strengthening muscles
Weakness in muscles surrounding an injured or affected area is common during rehabilitation. Rehabilitative exercises target specific muscle groups to improve strength, stability, and function.
Improving flexibility
Flexibility exercises focus on elongating muscles and increasing joint mobility to improve overall flexibility and reduce the risk of injury.
Enhancing coordination and balance
Exercises that challenge coordination and balance help improve proprioception (awareness of body position) and neuromuscular control, which are essential for functional movement and injury prevention.
Pain management
Certain exercises and techniques can help alleviate pain by promoting blood flow, reducing muscle tension, and releasing endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals.
Functional training
Rehabilitative exercises often include functional movements and activities that simulate real-life tasks to help individuals regain the ability to perform daily activities independently.

Rehabilitative exercises can vary widely depending on the individual's condition, goals, and functional abilities. They may include:
- Range of motion exercises (e.g., stretching, joint mobilizations)
- Strengthening exercises (e.g., resistance training, bodyweight exercises)
- Balance and proprioception exercises (e.g., standing on one leg, stability ball exercises)
- Coordination exercises (e.g., agility drills, hand-eye coordination tasks)
- Cardiovascular exercises (e.g., walking, cycling, swimming)
- Neuromuscular re-education exercises (e.g., functional movement patterns, gait training)
It’s important for individuals undergoing rehabilitative exercises to follow their healthcare provider’s instructions carefully and progress gradually to prevent re-injury and maximize recovery. Consistency and adherence to the prescribed exercise program are key to achieving optimal outcomes in rehabilitation.

SO helpful friendly and informative……our entire staff from my work visit Kirsten! Highly recommend to anyone….and I also take my special needs adult son…..he is treated with the upmost care 🙂
Maggie A
Dr. Genrich took the time to explain why I was experiencing my symptoms and also showed me stretches to do on my own to help the treatment along and to prevent injuries in the future. She was very personable, pleasant, positive and professional.
Lisa K
Kristin got me from being bed-ridden for over a month to working a physical job, all within just a couple of months. She’ll tell you how to stretch to keep everything aligned properly in the long run. Can’t thank you enough!
Daniel W
Dr. Kirsten truly saved me! I was in so much pain and didn’t know what to do. I came into the clinic nervous and in pain but left a new woman! I recommend her to anyone I meet and is having similar issues.
Cheyenne M
Kirstin Genrich is seriously AMAZING. She always asks/makes sure I’m comfortable before going forward with anything. She’s extremely knowledgeable and you can 100% tell that she is passionate about what she does. Like wow… if I could give more than 5 stars I would.
