Land Therapy in Houston and The Woodlands

Are you a person who’s athletically competitive? Are sports your life? Or perhaps you’re a professional athlete? Whatever it is, you’re a person who’s always active and any downtime is unacceptable. If you’re an athlete, you know that any injury, whether it’s small or big, can be extremely detrimental to your daily routine and even the future of your career. At the first sign of injury, you should seek land therapy from Houston Spine & Rehabilitation Center.

As the name suggests, land therapy is a type of physical therapy that involves therapeutic activity on land to promote healing and athletic performance. (This is in contrast with water therapy, or “aqua therapy,” which is performed in water for less impact and resistance.)

Whether you are returning from an injury or are simply trying to increase your fitness and overall health, physical therapy is a great way to help your body work the way it’s supposed to. If you’re able to handle moderate resistance and impact, there is no better or broader therapeutic route than land therapy. Here at Houston Spine & Rehabilitation Center, our physical therapy specialists proudly offer a wide range of land therapy programs specially tailored to meet the unique needs of each of our patients, including you. Using our extensive experience and state-of-the-art facilities, we help you restore your body and come back fitter than ever.

Land-Based Physical Therapy Benefits

As mentioned above, land therapy has a number of benefits in helping you increase strength, endurance, flexibility, cardiovascular performance and much more. For those who are able to handle the impact and resistance that come with most land-based physical therapy exercises and stretches, this type of therapy is more effective than its water-based cousin. Put simply, if you can handle land therapy, you should be doing it.

As a highly active person, you can get back to your normal routine quickly if you choose land-based physical therapy over water therapy. If your injuries are not extensive and you can handle our exercises, then this is the most effective way for you to get back in the gym.
