What exactly is Active Rehab?
Active rehabilitation is a recovery based program in which the client plays an active role. The client participates in the rehab, compared to someone performing rehab on them. These programs are directed toward the clients injury, history and current abilities. The goal of active rehabilitation is to increase function and overall strength and this type of rehabilitation consists of exercises and stretches, but can include other aspects such as cognitive exercises, nutrition and rest. Active Rehabilitation includes but is not limited to: mobility, stability, strength and endurance training  through client specific exercises and progression.

Active Rehabilitation 360°

In the last decade scientific evidence has been recommending an active, exercise based approach for several kinds of musculoskeletal problems. Thorough analysis of the patients problems and subjective as well as physical parameter gathering precedes the choice of the rehabilitation approach. Detailed and partially software related parameter gathering will highlight the biological and psychosocial, functional variables of human movement.

The individual capability of load tolerance and the amount of acceptable symptoms during the rehabilitation process needs to be planned and are correlated to the patients clinical history, presentation as well as to the individual needs. The right volume, frequency and intensity of the exercise program needs to be determined as well as the desired and achievable goals in the correct time frame.

Three specialized physiotherapists will be dealing with several aspects of functional movement analysis, parameter gathering, planning, execution, optimization, progression of exercise, goal setting and observation of the rehabilitation process and their focus will be on an active exercise based approach.
