A functional movement program is designed to identify and correct dysfunctional movement patterns that contribute to pain, injury, and decreased physical performance. At Indian Trail Chiropractic & Rehab, Dr. Gentile combines chiropractic care with targeted functional movement exercises to restore strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination naturally. This personalized program enhances the body’s ability to perform everyday activities and athletic tasks with improved efficiency and reduced injury risk.
What Is a Functional Movement Program?
A functional movement program starts with a comprehensive assessment of your movement patterns, balance, strength, and flexibility to identify asymmetries or limitations. Dr. Gentile then creates a customized rehab plan that focuses on retraining the body through controlled exercises designed to restore optimal movement mechanics. This approach targets the root causes of musculoskeletal pain by improving joint function, muscular coordination, and neuromuscular control, rather than just addressing symptoms.
