Static & Progressive Exercise Rehab

What is the difference between a static and a progressive exercise rehab? And why does a program out weigh a one-off session?

 

Static and progressive exercise rehab differ mainly in their scope and goals.

Static rehab focuses on specific exercises that maintain their difficulty level over time. 

The primary goal is to prevent further injury, manage pain, and maintain current function.

Progressive rehab, on the other hand, incorporates exercises that increase in complexity and difficulty over time. The goal is to improve strength, endurance, flexibility, and ultimately, restore full function.

An exercise rehab program outweighs a one-off session because rehabilitation often requires sustained effort and gradual progress. A program is designed to adapt to your developing needs, providing support and setting new challenges as you regain strength and mobility over time. 

In a single session, there’s a limited amount you can achieve and it might not show the long-term benefits or help you make significant improvements. 

That’s why at Myofunction, we believe regular sessions in a program allow for feedback from our rehab experts, encouraging safe progress.
