At Karuna Wellness and Rehabilitation, we believe that prevention is the key to maintaining long-term health and avoiding injury. Our Prehab Program is designed to help individuals prepare their bodies for the physical demands of daily life, sports, or specific activities, reducing the risk of injury and enhancing overall performance.
What is Prehabilitation (Prehab)?
Prehabilitation is the proactive approach to improving strength, flexibility, and mobility before an injury occurs. Unlike rehabilitation, which focuses on recovery after an injury, prehabilitation aims to prevent injuries from happening in the first place. Whether you're preparing for a sport, a physically demanding job, or just want to maintain a healthy lifestyle, prehab helps you stay strong and injury-free.
Who Can Benefit from Prehab?
Our Prehab Program is ideal for anyone who wants to:
- Improve athletic performance: Athletes looking to reduce the risk of injury while increasing strength and endurance.
- Prevent chronic pain: Individuals experiencing stiffness, tension, or discomfort in areas that are prone to injury.
- Recover from past injuries: People who have previously suffered injuries and want to prevent re-injury or manage current limitations.
- Prepare for physical activities: Whether you’re preparing for a marathon, an intense workout routine, or just want to be more active, prehab will help condition your body for optimal performance.
- Post-surgery recovery: Individuals who have had surgery and want to strengthen muscles and tissues in preparation for returning to regular activities.
What to Expect in a Prehab Session
When you join our Prehab Program, our expert physiotherapists will guide you through a customized treatment plan based on your goals and needs. Your prehab plan may include:
- Physical Assessment: The first step in our Prehab Program is a thorough physical evaluation. We assess your posture, movement patterns, flexibility, and any specific areas of weakness or tightness.
- Personalized Exercise Plan: Based on your assessment, we create a tailored exercise program that focuses on strengthening weak areas, improving flexibility, and addressing any imbalances that could lead to injury.
- Mobility and Flexibility Training: A key component of prehab is improving joint mobility and muscle flexibility. Our therapists will teach you techniques to enhance your range of motion and overall movement efficiency.
- Education: We’ll empower you with the knowledge you need to maintain a healthy body and avoid common injuries. This includes advice on posture, ergonomics, warm-ups, and recovery strategies.
- Injury Prevention Strategies: We focus on techniques that promote proper movement patterns and body mechanics to reduce strain on your muscles and joints, preventing unnecessary injuries.
