FAQs
Is active rehab the same as physical therapy?
Active Rehab is exercise-based, where the Kinesiologist will guide you through each exercise session. Think of active rehab like the last step on your recovery journey from an injury. Physical therapy will typically be more hands-on, where the physiotherapist will assist in stretching and massaging injured areas.
Who is active rehab for?
Active rehab isn’t just for people who were injured in car accidents. It can also be used to help with general injuries or sports injuries. However, our ICBC Active Rehab is designed specifically to help with motor vehicle accident recovery.
What exercises and techniques are used in active rehab programs?
Active rehab can include all kinds of exercises, using dumbbells, resistance bands, body weight exercises, stretches, and aerobic activities. The exercises we choose for your workout will be tailored to your goals and current abilities. We won’t push you to do things you cannot do.
Can I continue my regular physical activities or exercises while participating in active rehab?
We’ll determine if it’s appropriate to continue physical activities outside of your sessions in our initial assessment and as we monitor your progress.
