What is individualized exercise instruction?

Jeffery A. Saal, MD, and Joel S. Sall, MD, pioneered the development of dynamic muscle stabilization exercises used for the treatment of spinal disorders. Later, this development became the foundation for popular “core training” programs worldwide. “Core training” did not exist until the Saal’s research changed the way spinal disorders were treated. This has also led to the development of a medically guided yoga program.

Individualized exercise instruction available at SOAR Spine and Orthopedics includes personalized exercise plans developed by highly trained physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists. The SOAR Spine and Orthopedics team uses physical therapy, customized exercise programs, and other holistic methods to improve muscle and nerve function.
