Corrective Exercises in Elmhurst
At Tree of Life Wellness Center, helping you reach your health and wellness goals is our priority. Assisting in the healing process is what we call “corrective exercises,” which can be performed both at the office and in the comfort of your own home.
In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use, which can lead to loss of mobility, imbalance, and further injury. As such, it is important to correct these issues to restore muscle function and strengthen your overall body. A stronger body can support a stronger spine, which in turn leads to a speedier recovery. Patients from student athletes to office workers, and everyone in between, can benefit from corrective exercises. Common injuries and symptoms that can be helped with corrective exercises include, but are not limited to:
- Sciatica
- Back and neck pain
- Loss of joint function/join injury (ankles, wrists, elbows, knees, shoulders)
- Herniated discs
- Pinched Nerve
When combined with non-surgical reconstructive adjustments, corrective exercises can move your muscles into proper alignment, work out degenerated discs, and break up scar tissue, all part of your journey toward recovery and better health!
Exercises performed at the office include wall traction, vestibular discs/chairs, lordotic pump, and more. Once you progress in the program, we will prescribe and help you understand corrective exercises you can perform at home or even at your work. These exercises are customized to your condition and wellness goals. Doing these exercises on a regular basis will help ensure that you reach your goals in an optimal amount of time.
