Therapeutic Exercise

Build strength, improve mobility, and support long-term recovery

Extend the Benefits of Your Treatment at Home

Therapeutic exercise helps you stay pain-free between visits. By following a customized routine of stretches and movements, you can restore flexibility, improve strength, and protect yourself from re-injury.

While chiropractic adjustments and soft tissue therapy provide immediate relief, ongoing progress depends on consistent, condition-specific exercises. These movements are carefully selected to support your recovery and prevent pain from returning.

What to Expect

  • A personalized set of exercises based on your symptoms and goals

  • Guided instruction and live demonstrations during your appointment

  • Video recordings so you can follow along at home

  • Adjustments to your routine over time as your mobility improves

Conditions That Benefit from Therapeutic Exercise

  • Back and neck pain

  • Tendonitis and repetitive strain injuries

  • Poor posture and core weakness

  • Joint instability or stiffness

  • Recovery from sports or overuse injuries

Why It Matters

Therapeutic exercise gives you the tools to take an active role in your healing. It’s one of the most effective ways to build resilience, restore full function, and reduce the risk of future flare-ups.
