Corrective Exercise Continuum
The systematic programming process used to address neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction using inhibitory, lengthening, activation, and integration techniques.
Inhibitory Techniques
Corrective exercise techniques used to reduce tension or decrease activity of overactive neuromyofascial tissues in the body.
Lengthening Techniques
Corrective exercise techniques used to increase the extensibility, length, and range of motion (ROM) of neuromyofascial tissues in the body.
Activation Techniques
Corrective exercise techniques used to reeducate or increase activation of underactive tissues.
