Therapeutic gymnastics is guided exercise aimed at the prevention and treatment of, and recovery from illness and dysfunctions, as well as promoting individual autonomy in order for a patient to return to physical activity.

Therapeutic gymnastics

therapeutic gymnastics consists of performing specific and planned movements specifically designed for each pathology or dysfunction, aimed at recovering flexibility, strength or resistance and achieving the optimal level of movement asymptomatically. Therapeutic exercise is a technique within the field of physiotherapy, taught by a specialized physiotherapist.

It will be practised in our specialized and adapted gym. In individual and/or small group sessions. The physiotherapist initially performs an assessment with which the specific exercises are adjusted and adapted to the pathology, carrying out an individualized therapeutic intervention plan.
