    Passive stretching, isometrics and neuromuscular activation techniques can help down-regulate and re-set the pain sensory system.

• • LIGHT AEROBIC TRAINING

    Heart rate elevation at low intensities will improve circulation throughout the body to help flush inflammation, lactate and other toxins that cause soreness and impair function.

  • 
• • FUNCTIONAL MOVEMENT

    Triplanar (3D), full body movement patterns will restore pain-free range of motion as well as optimize proprioception and balance without taxing the musculoskeletal system during recovery.
