Functional Exercise Rehabilitation
Bridging the Gap Between Clinical Treatment and Daily Movement. Our Integrated Approach to Rehabilitation
At Integro, exercise rehabilitation is more than just a workout. It is a specialized process designed to return athletes to their sport and injured workers to their careers. By focusing on the quality of movement, we develop the functional strength and flexibility your body needs to excel in both daily activities and high-level athletic pursuits.
The Integro Diagnostic Process: FMS & SFMA
Every program begins with the gold standard in movement assessment: the Functional Movement Screen (FMS) and Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA). These screens allow us to pinpoint exactly where your body requires focus. Mobility ensures the ability to move freely through a full range of motion, while Stability provides the control needed to support your joints during activity. By identifying these specific needs, we build the Strength and power required to overcome your physical challenges.
The Integro Recovery Philosophy
Based on your unique movement profile, we create a personalized exercise program rooted in the world-renowned methodologies of Gray Cook, PT, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), and Paul Chek.
Core-Centric Recovery prioritizes core stability as the foundation of every movement, building strength from the center of the body outward. We focus on Ideal Movement Patterns to re-train your body to move correctly, facilitating soft tissue healing and significantly decreasing pain sensation. When appropriate, we provide Soft Tissue Integration by seamlessly blending manual therapy with your exercises to accelerate recovery. Our ultimate goal is Injury Prevention, making your body more adept at performing your hobbies and daily tasks while effectively preventing future re-injury.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from physical therapy?
Physical therapy often focuses on recovering a specific injured area. Functional Rehabilitation looks at your entire movement pattern using FMS and SFMA screening, since compensations elsewhere in the body are often what caused the injury in the first place. The goal is not just recovering the injured area, but correcting the pattern that led to it.
Do I need to be an athlete to benefit from this?
No. While we work with competitive and youth athletes, the same movement-based approach applies to anyone dealing with chronic pain, poor mobility, or repeated injuries from daily activity or work.
How often will I need to come in, and do I need equipment at home?
Program frequency depends on your specific movement findings from the initial FMS and SFMA screen. Most programs include a home exercise component, and I will let you know exactly what, if any, equipment is needed based on your individualized plan.
