Patient Mobilization / Passive Exercises

What is it?

Helping you move and exercise to prevent stiffness, maintain muscle strength, and prevent complications.

Why is movement important?

Even gentle movement prevents blood clots, pneumonia, muscle loss, and maintains circulation and mental health.
