How well and how quickly patients completely recover from their injuries often depends on how well they follow their post-rehab exercise programs at home. These can be very demanding, especially for those who did not regularly exercise before therapy. FVPT has designed a program where patients can return to FVPT, use the equipment, and consult with therapists after completion of therapy. |
