Synopsis

This is a practical guide for the use of exercise in various forms of therapy. Supported by a theoretical background of the physiology of the exercises, it aims to enable health professionals to make informed decisions about the inclusion of an exercise programme in a patient's treatment. Exercises are described - and many are illustrated - which may be used to develop muscular strength or muscular endurance, joint mobility and cardiovascular fitness. Whilst emphasizing the physiological aspects of the exercises, the chapters also consider the psychological and sociological benefits of exercise participation. The wider implications of exercise and its incorporation into a healthy life-style are also discussed.
