What is assisted mobility & stretching?

Therapy Gyms provide hands on exercise support for individual's who require additional support to engage in physical activity. This is a must have activity for individual's to prevent deconditioning, prevent falls and increase wellbeing.

It is further important for people with a disability, injury or illness, including those in care settings with dementia and learning disabilities to participate in inclusive meaningful therapy based activities.

Therapy Gyms Ltd is a leading healthcare exercise supplier. in 2023 over 60 Health & Social Care Professionals in Essex and Suffolk booked a Therapy Gyms visit, providing more than 1,800 individuals with specific physical activity support.

In care settings and hospitals, exercise and movement activities are becoming increasingly commonplace as a way to help residents and patients stay healthy and independent for longer.

An activity accessible for anyone, enabling their participation in physical activity, no matter what limitations or challenges there may be.

Testimonial - Lydia Karkocha, Occupational Therapist - Cygnet Healthcare

Since Therapy Gyms introduced their physical exercise sessions to our patients we could observe positive changes in their mental health and motivation to engage.

Our patients' primary diagnosis is learning disabilities and autism and associated severe problem behaviours including aggression and self harm. They experience difficulties with managing own emotions and self regulation. Exercises offered by Therapy Gyms are a big part of treatment aiming to fulfil individual sensory processing needs and reduce the frequency and intensity of problem behaviours.

Therapy Gyms trainers work closely with our patients and Occupational Therapy team to tailor the sessions to achieve the best outcomes. Some of the mental health benefits we observe include improved motivation to engage in daily activities, increased confidence and self esteem, reduction in anxiety levels, better coping skills, increased tolerance to change, improved ability to communicate and express own emotions.
