The Process
Assessments
Bodywork
Corrective Exercise (optional)
Assessments
Assess. Assessments are significant and useful to help the practitioner identify the root cause of the issue. Assessments are mandatory for those dealing with pain.
Bodywork
Bodywork. Bodywork is the foundation. Techniques vary given what results the therapist is trying to achieve and what service the client is interested in.
Corrective Exercise
Strengthen. Think of corrective exercises as strengthening the right muscles to help with movement and muscle imbalances. Overactive muscles are not always the issue, a weak muscle can be causing the issue. Corrective exercises is extremely significant when trying to pursuing a long term solution.
Corrective exercise is optional. It can be implemented and used in any therapy session as a portion of the time or it can be added separately.
