Isokinetic Exercise
- Local
Isokinetic exercises play a big role in physical therapy because they’re not just a part of a treatment program, they’re also used to help identify and document physical impairment. Throughout the course of your treatment at Physical Therapists NYC we’ll often keep track of improvements and strength gained through isokinetic exercise.
In a nutshell, isokinetic exercises are resistance-based exercises using specialized equipment that holds the rate constant while allowing for adjustments in the resistance. The target speed and range of motion can be adjusted for each patient and set to focus on specific muscle groups. The patient is in charge of the amount of resistance they supply, working their muscles safely and in a manner that allows muscles to gain strength consistently through the entire defined range of movement.
If you’ve been prescribed isokinetic exercise, there’s a good chance you’re recovering from an injury or surgery. Knees and backs respond particularly well to isokinetic training. When doing isokinetic exercise treatment, you’ can expect the following benefits.
- Consistent strength building throughout the range of motion
- A rapid improvement in range of motion and flexibility
- Rapid strength building and muscle control
- Ability to resist future injury to the region
- Release of endorphins during exercise that feels invigorating, not exhausting
