Prehabilitation Exercises

We use prehabilitation exercises to build strength, improve mobility, and prevent injury before it occurs.

This proactive approach helps identify and correct weak points before they lead to pain or breakdown. Whether you’re preparing for surgery, returning to sport, or simply want to stay active and injury-free, our tailored prehab programs support movement, performance and long-term physical health.

Prehabilitation Exercises for Injury Prevention and Recovery

Prehabilitation Exercises

Prehabilitation is about protecting the body before it breaks down. We design exercise plans that strengthen vulnerable joints, improve control, and correct poor movement habits.

Each program begins with a functional assessment. From there, we tailor exercises to your needs, helping you build resilience in the areas that matter most. It’s ideal for athletes, workers in physical roles, and anyone managing ongoing niggles or movement restrictions.

Mobility Training

Mobility training targets joints and muscles that limit movement. Common problem areas include hips, shoulders, and thoracic spine.

We guide you through active mobility drills that increase joint range without relying on passive stretching. These exercises improve flexibility, reduce tension, and lay the foundation for better movement in both daily life and training.

Stability Training

Joint stability is essential for safe, efficient movement. We focus on activating the deep muscles that support major joints like the spine, shoulders, hips and knees.

Through controlled, low-load exercises, we train your body to maintain balance and control under pressure. This reduces the risk of strain, improves coordination, and supports better technique in sport and strength work.

Strengthening Exercises

Strength-based prehab targets the postural and support muscles that keep your body moving well under load.

We avoid generic weight training and instead focus on targeted resistance work to support key joints. Expect slow, deliberate movement, technique cues, and clear progression tailored to your ability. This builds functional strength and reduces the risk of overload injuries.

Injury Prevention

Most injuries come from poor mechanics, fatigue or imbalance, not impact. We use a structured approach to identify those risks before they cause damage.

That includes correcting movement patterns, improving joint control, and teaching you how to manage load across your week. You’ll finish with a stronger, more efficient movement base that supports long-term health.help you get back to doing what you love, pain-free and confident.

Prehabilitation FAQS

Who needs prehabilitation?

Anyone who wants to stay active, injury-free, and moving well. Prehabilitation is ideal for athletes, workers in physical jobs, people preparing for surgery, or those with a history of recurring pain or strain.

Is this just for elite athletes?

Not at all. Prehab is used across all fitness levels. We work with everyday clients who want to improve posture, reduce niggles, or future-proof their movement. Programs are fully personalised to your lifestyle and needs.

What equipment do I need?

Most prehab exercises use bodyweight, resistance bands or basic tools. We design your program around the space and equipment you have access to, whether at home or in the clinic.

Does prehab replace physio or rehab?

No. It works alongside other care plans. Prehabilitation is proactive. If you’re injured or recovering, rehab may still be needed. But prehab can reduce the chance you’ll need rehab later.

Can I claim this through private health?

Yes, in most cases, especially if delivered by a chiropractor or integrated into a treatment plan. We provide itemised invoices and can help check your coverage.

Does it help with posture?

Absolutely. Poor posture often comes from weakness, tightness or imbalance. Prehab addresses all three by improving mobility and strength around key postural areas.
