Developing Post-Rehabilitation Protocols
The protocols used by Exerbotics Medical Exercise Specialist are developed in conjunction with the client's medical professional to establish structured conditioning guidelines after release from physical therapy, chiropractic care or physician. These protocols will serve as a baseline from which the client's progression, daily exercise and intensity can be determined.

Program Admission
A screening for admission into the program is required and is followed by a fitness assessment. This prerequisite aids in developing individualized programs for client's that have been given medical clearance after moving beyond the acute phase of their condition.

The criteria for admission into our POST-REHAB OR FUNCTIONAL CONDITIONING PROGRAM are as follows:

 The client is beyond the acute phase of his/her condition
 The client's pain level is '5' or below
 The client must have a medical referral from a physician, physical therapist or chiropractor to begin the program
 The client must complete an initial screen and fitness assessment.

*The MES specialist at Exerbotics Premier Fitness Studios does not diagnose or provide any aspect of medical treatment of a client's condition. The MES functional conditioning program is designed for clients who are referred and given medical clearance by a licensed physical therapist, chiropractor or physician for conditioning services.
