The exercise tubing can be used with ROM exercises to provide resistance and a resultant increase in strength. Use of Metron Exercise Tubing can be throughout the rehabilitation process as it comes in varying grades of resistance, ranging from easy to super heavy.
The resistance is marked by the colour of the band, light colours = light resistance, and dark colours = heavy resistance.
A typical program will include:
- Inversion
- Eversion
- Plantarflexion
- Dorsiflexion
A typical session will involve 3 – 5 sets of 15 repetitions. Sessions should only progress at the tolerance of the patient. If swelling or pain increases, step down the reps/sets/resistance.
