What Are Corrective Exercises?
Corrective exercises are the therapeutic use of specific bodily movements and postures designed to restore proper function in diseased or injured tissues. These carefully selected movement strategies work to minimize or eliminate compensation patterns that develop when your body tries to work around pain or dysfunction. Our corrective exercises are specifically designed to cue your motor system to respond in a more desirable way, helping to remove or improve biomechanical constraints that limit your movement and function.
Why Corrective Exercises Should Come First
Corrective exercises should precede more integrated exercises because they establish proper movement patterns and neuromuscular control. When your body compensates for injury or dysfunction, it develops faulty movement patterns that can perpetuate problems and lead to additional injuries. By addressing these compensation patterns first through targeted corrective exercises, we can retrain your motor system to function properly before progressing to more complex movements. This foundation is essential for preventing re-injury and achieving lasting results.
Building a Foundation for Long-Term Success
Our corrective exercise programs are individually designed based on your specific movement dysfunctions and compensation patterns. By systematically addressing these issues through targeted exercises, we help restore proper biomechanics and prepare your body for more advanced rehabilitation and fitness activities. This methodical approach ensures that you develop the proper foundation needed for long-term recovery and optimal function in all your daily activities.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Common Questions About Corrective Exercises
Corrective exercises are specifically designed to address movement dysfunctions and compensation patterns. Unlike general exercises, they target the root causes of poor movement quality and are performed with precise form and controlled movement patterns to retrain your nervous system and restore proper function.
We conduct a comprehensive movement assessment to identify compensation patterns, muscle imbalances, and biomechanical dysfunctions. Based on these findings, we design a specific corrective exercise program tailored to address your individual movement deficits and restoration needs.
Corrective exercises should be started as early as possible in your treatment plan, often alongside other therapies. They should precede more integrated exercises because they establish proper movement patterns and motor control that serve as the foundation for all other activities.
The duration varies depending on your specific condition and how long compensation patterns have been present. Initially, you may need to focus exclusively on corrective exercises for several weeks before progressing to more integrated movements. Many patients continue some corrective exercises as maintenance even after full recovery.
Yes, corrective exercises are excellent for injury prevention. By addressing movement dysfunctions and compensation patterns before they lead to pain or injury, corrective exercises help maintain proper biomechanics and reduce the risk of future problems.
Sessions focus on precise movement quality rather than intensity. You'll learn specific exercises designed to address your movement dysfunctions, with emphasis on proper form, control, and awareness. Progress is measured by improved movement quality and reduced compensation patterns rather than strength or endurance.
