General Rehabilitation Tips Flashcards
Why is gradual progression important in rehabilitation?
1 - To avoid exacerbating injuries, starting with low-intensity exercises allows the body to adapt and progressively build strength and mobility.
2 - This approach minimizes the risk of re-injury.
How should athletes monitor pain during rehabilitation exercises?
1 - Exercises should not cause significant pain; mild discomfort may be acceptable, but sharp or severe pain indicates the need to reduce intensity or modify the exercise.
2 - Regular communication with healthcare providers is essential to adjust the program as needed.
What is the significance of consistency in rehabilitation?
1 - Regular performance of rehabilitation exercises enhances recovery and improves overall function.
2 - Adhering to a structured program increases the likelihood of successful outcomes.
