Deconditioning is the reduction or the loss of function in a certain part of the body or in the whole body when it’s inactive for a while. This could be due to illnesses, pathologies or injuries. Physical reconditioning is an individualized treatment program designed in order to allow an individual to return and possibly exceed their original level of strength, endurance, power, mobility and physical activity in general.
It’s typically offered as 1:1 conditioning & fitness program in which a physical therapist, trained in strength and conditioning, follows a person, also providing a constantly updated home exercise program prescription.
