Exercises are an important component of rehabilitation for all forms of injury and pain.
Exercise may include stretching or strengthening exercises that you perform at the gym or at home. They may also involve the use of equipment and the supervision of your physiotherapist or myotherapist in the fully equipped rehabilitation gym that is onsite here at Fountain Gate Physiotherapy.
