Therapeutic Exercise

Therapeutic exercise focuses on locating and addressing specific problem areas in your body to treat them, promoting overall physical mobility, function, and endurance. The goal at Flemming Chiropractic in New Bern, NC, is simple - to help you regain maximum physical fitness without invasive methods. 

Categories of Therapeutic Exercise

These exercises are separated into three categories: endurance training, resistance training, and flexibility training. Sometimes patients need help releasing contracted muscles, tendons, and fascia. Others benefit from therapeutic exercises to mobilize joints, improve circulation and respiratory capacity, increase coordination, reduce rigidity, and improve balance.

Why You Should Consider Treatment

You may be wondering if therapeutic exercises are your best treatment method. Whether you're suffering from an illness or chronic condition, are recovering from an injury, are looking to manage pain, or improving your athletic performance, therapeutic exercise can help you on your journey to recovery. 

Maybe you fell while on your morning run or pulled a muscle while lifting weights. At the time, your injury didn't seem too severe, but now you find you're not healing as quickly as you'd like, and your body isn't moving as easily as before. If you're not careful, that discomfort can linger for weeks, months, or even years, so seeking treatment is crucial. 

There is no doubt that chronic conditions can be debilitating. If you're suffering from conditions such as arthritis or multiple sclerosis, you've probably noticed that your physical functioning is decreasing. While therapeutic exercise can't cure your illness, it can improve your quality of life by managing your symptoms. These exercises can help you maintain your mobility and strength and reduce pain.

Did you wake up one day with a sore neck? Do you notice your lower back aches throughout the day? Pain can creep up on you at any stage of life, no matter your physical condition. Rather than ignoring the issue and hoping it gets better, performing exercises that target your problem areas can reduce your pain and strengthen that part of your body.
