What is exercise rehabilitation?

Exercise rehabilitation (often called exercise-based rehab) is the use of structured, progressive exercise programs to help people recover from injury or illness, reduce pain, restore movement and strength, and return to daily activities, work, or sport safely.

It’s a core part of physiotherapy and sports therapy, but it’s also used by exercise physiologists and rehabilitation specialists.

---

What exercise rehabilitation involves

1. Assessment

A professional first assesses:

Injury or condition

Pain levels

Movement patterns and posture

Strength, flexibility, balance, and endurance

Functional goals (e.g. walking pain-free, returning to sport)

---

2. Tailored exercise program

Exercises are individualised and progressive, such as:

Mobility exercises – restore joint range of motion

Strength training – rebuild muscles and support joints

Stability & control exercises – core, balance, coordination

Functional exercises – movements needed for daily life or sport

Cardiovascular conditioning – improve fitness and endurance

---

3. Gradual progression

The program is adjusted over time by:

Increasing resistance, reps, or complexity

Adding sport-specific or work-specific tasks

Monitoring pain, fatigue, and recovery

---

What conditions exercise rehabilitation helps with

Musculoskeletal injuries (sprains, strains, back pain)

Post-surgery recovery (ACL, joint replacements)

Chronic pain conditions

Neurological conditions (e.g. stroke, MS – with specialist care)

Cardiac and respiratory rehabilitation

Sports injuries and overuse problems

The supplement and nutrition industry is a multi-billion-dollar market built on promises of better health, increased energy, weight loss, and disease prevention. While some products can be beneficial when used appropriately, many companies rely on exaggerated or misleading claims to sell their supplements—often without solid scientific evidence to support them.

One common tactic is overstating benefits. Phrases like “clinically proven,” “miracle cure,” or “boosts immunity instantly” are frequently used in marketing, even when studies are limited, poorly designed, or irrelevant to real-world use. In some cases, research may exist, but the dosage tested is far higher than what the product actually contains, making the advertised benefit unlikely or impossible.

Another issue is the misuse of “natural” labeling. Many consumers assume that “natural” means safe or effective, but this term is largely unregulated. Natural ingredients can still have side effects, interact with medications, or provide no measurable benefit at all. Companies may exploit this perception to market products that appear healthier or safer than they truly are.

Testimonials and influencer endorsements also play a major role in spreading false claims. Personal stories can be compelling, but they are not scientific evidence. Weight loss, muscle gain, or improved focus may result from lifestyle changes rather than the supplement itself, yet marketing often presents these outcomes as direct results of the product.

Regulation adds another layer of concern. In many countries, supplements are not required to prove effectiveness before being sold. Regulatory agencies can intervene after harm occurs, but misleading products may remain on the market for years before action is taken.

Ultimately, false claims undermine consumer trust and can pose real health risks. Consumers should approach supplement marketing with skepticism, look for evidence from reputable scientific sources, and consult healthcare professionals before using products that promise dramatic results. In an industry driven by profit, critical thinking remains the strongest defense.

ICE TREATMENT:
For a fresh muscle injury, apply ice for 15-20 minutes every 2-3 hours to reduce pain, swelling, and bleeding. Always wrap the ice pack in a towel to prevent skin damage. The treatment is most effective within the first 48 hours and is often used as part of the RICE method (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation

Many claims are being made by NMN companies with no scientific human based studies.

MMN is not currently known to restore hair colour in humans, and some research even suggests it may decrease melanin production in aged human melanocytes.

NMN is not yet a proven treatment to improve sight in humans

There is no conclusive human evidence that NMN directly increases testosterone levels.

I have used these products myself, and initially I thought I noticed some benefits (PLACEBO).
After discontinuation of the product, I feel exactly the same.

If spending your money on these products, look at scientific human evidence, rather than animal based evidence.

Don't just go off reviews, as these are not always reliable (people are offered discounted/free supplements/products for positive reviews)

I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR HONEST FEEDBACK REGARDING NMN.

NMN is a mix of hype and reality, supported by some scientific evidence for potential benefits, but with a need for more long-term human studies to confirm its efficacy and safety. Animal studies show promise for improving aging-related decline, and some human trials suggest NMN can boost NAD+ levels and offer benefits like improved insulin sensitivity, muscle function, and aerobic capacity at certain doses. However, user experiences often describe more subtle effects like improved focus and endurance, while conclusive proof of anti-aging and lifespan extension in humans is still lacking.
