Physical Activity & Exercise Guidance

Finding the right physical activity for you that can assist in your health recovery needn’t be complex. Physical activity and exercise can be integrated into your day fairly easily. But, it can be confronting to know where to begin, especially if you have other health conditions, pain or joint injuries that need to be considered. A program that is going to be right for you is possible.

Injury Management

With weight loss and lifestyle changes, old injuries can re-emerge and hinder your progress to restore your health. This can involve not only gait (walking pattern) changes but the loading pattern through your knees and hips change. Your core strength will alter with your weight loss; and so too you’re your posture. This can unravel old injuries – but exercise that is focused on your injury needs can help. Targeted treatment and rehab are available in the clinic and via telehealth. For more details:
