The Resistance Exercise Chair can be successfully used for the following:

Rehabilitation Therapy: Physical therapy can help you recover from an injury and avoid future injury by improving flexibility and function and building muscle strength. Physical therapy also is useful after joint surgery, especially for artificial joint replacement. The goal of the physical therapist is often to restore a person back to the point where he or she can perform everyday activities without difficulty.

To help you recover from injury your physical therapist will recommend exercises that increase the range of motion of an injured joint and build strength in the muscles around the joint. The physical therapist will also analyze how you perform an activity and suggest how to do the activity in a way that is less likely to incur injury.

Ultimately, the therapist will design an exercise plan tailored to your specific rehabilitation needs and, if necessary, show you how to use equipment that will assist with your recovery and mobility, such as walkers, canes, and exercise equipment.

Please find below a list of medical protocols that will assist physical therapists and other healthcare providers in using the Resistance Chair system for rehabilitation of specific injuries. Please consult with your healthcare professional to see if this product and exercise routines are right for you.

Some conditions the Resistance Chair can help with: Shoulder and Elbow Pain, Lumbar Stenosis, Frozen Shoulder, Osteoporosis, Knee Arthritis and Back Pain. Can also assist with Core Stabilization.

Exercise solutions for Medical Conditions:

Physical therapy can help you recover from surgery and injuries, and help you live more easily with chronic health conditions. Your physical therapist will work with you to establish your goals, then create a program of educational, range-of-motion, strengthening, and endurance activities to meet your needs.

Some physical therapy and health conditions require a rehabilitation team approach. Conditions such as stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury, and major cardiopulmonary (heart and lung) problems usually require the attention of a team of health care practitioners. This team can include doctors, nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, and other professionals. Physical therapists represent a critical part of this team, addressing issues such as range of motion, strength, endurance, mobility and safety. The physical therapist can also recommend equipment to help you self-manage your therapy treatment at home. In fact, many people purchase the Resistance Chair exercise and rehabilitation system upon the advice of their physical therapist.

Please find below a list of medical guidelines that offer suggestions on how to use the Resistance Chair system to address many prevalent illnesses and ailments. Please consult with your healthcare professional to see if this product and exercise routines are right for you.

The Resistance Chair can assist with: Cancer Rehab, Obesity, Cardiovascular Disease, Osteoarthritis, COPD, Amputation Rehab, Parkinson's Disease

Senior Fitness Solutions:

People are living longer than ever before. Advances in medicine, nutritional awareness, and improved exercise habits have contributed to the rapid growth of the 65+ age group. In order to stay more healthy and productive, many people are adopting a lifestyle that promotes total well-being, including eating a healthy diet and engaging in regular exercise.

Exercise is just as important for those in their sixties and seventies than it is for people half that age. No matter what your age, the benefits of exercise are the same - increased energy and self-esteem, conditioned heart and lungs, improved muscle tone, and greater function of bones and joints. The effects of certain chronic diseases, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, arthritis, and osteoporosis, can also be reduced by engaging in regular exercise.

Remember, before beginning any new exercise program, always consult with your health care professional to design an appropriate exercise routine that is right for you.
