EXERCISE TO REHABILITATE INJURIES

Exercise is key to healing many chronic conditions and home exercise is a great form of physical therapy rehabilitation. This chapter covers basic concepts of exercise and provides a basic workout and stretching routine. There is important material that can help many people obtain the benefits of exercise they need to heal. Exercise for weight loss is included as well.

This chapter does not include discussions about specific exercises for specific injuries. Consult the sports injury chapter for specific stretches and exercises for shin splints, hamstring strain, rotator cuff, shoulder tendonitis, tennis elbow, golfers elbow, and wrist tendonitis.

Many other specific stretches and exercises are covered in other chapters of this book. The chapters on knee, ankle sprain, Achilles tendonitis/plantar fasciitis, and four causes of sciatic pain, all contain information for these specific injuries. The tendonitis chapter has the main treatment for the tendonitis/muscle spasm complex.

This chapter includes discussions on:
  • The difference between Exercise and Activities of Daily Living, and how to do the correct techniques for healing.
  • The difference between exercise and stretching and when to do each.
  • Weight lifting vs. other types of exercise.
  • When to introduce exercise when you are injured.
  • The most important key to weight lifting that most people get wrong (even many body builders). This one concept will greatly increase the efficiency of your workout.
  • Illustrations of proper stretches.
  • Aerobic vs. anaerobic. How much of each.
  • Exercise and weight loss.
  • Proper weight lifting technique – guidelines and illustrations.
  • Workout plans for 3, 4, 5, and 6 days per week.
  • Strategies for success.
  • The combination of this chapter with the other chapters in this book provides a fairly comprehensive suggestion of weight lifting routines, exercise programs, and physical therapy rehabilitation that should help many people to get the relief they need.
