Resistance Training for Persistent Pain

RESISTANCE TRAINING

At Physiotec, we see many people with persistent hip and lower back pain. A lot of them are fearful regarding resistance training or are unsure what types of exercises are appropriate for them. There is often a misconception surrounding resistance training regarding its potential to be harmful or unsure for patients with persistent pain. At Physiotec, we aim to create an environment, which promotes strengthening in a safe and graduated way.
