Movement therapy techniques utilize structured physical exercises to improve mobility, strength, and coordination in patients undergoing rehabilitation. These therapies, including proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation, task-oriented exercises, and aquatic therapy, are particularly effective for patients with neurological or musculoskeletal impairments. Movement therapy aims to enhance the brain-body connection, promoting motor learning and control. By practicing specific movements, patients improve balance, muscle tone, and joint flexibility. This approach is widely used for conditions like stroke recovery, cerebral palsy, and Parkinson’s disease. Movement therapy not only aids in physical recovery but also boosts patients' confidence and motivation.
