Home Exercise Program

Your home exercise program is a very important part of your rehabilitation. Your therapist will teach you stretching, strengthening, and postural exercises that you must do daily in order to get the most out of your rehabilitation. The more "therapy" you do at home, on your own, the faster you will recover. If you do your exercises faithfully, your outcome will be much more satisfactory, your impairments will be limited, and your pain will be less.

When you are recovering from an injury or surgery, it is completely normal to experience some pain, soreness, and stiffness when you perform your home exercise program. If you experience a significant increase in pain while doing your exercises, stop doing them and report it to your therapist.
