Functional Recovery™
(Adaptive By Design™)
Bridging the gap from rehab to independence.
Physical therapy is often where the journey begins, but it shouldn't be where it ends. Many people find themselves "graduated" from PT but not yet ready for the intensity of a traditional gym.
Functional Recovery™ is your bridge. Whether you are recovering from surgery (ACL, Hip, Shoulder) or a chronic injury, we provide the specialized oversight needed to return to full activity. We use
The amaDEO R.A.D. Method™ to help you move past "guarding" patterns and return to the activities you love with confidence and safety.
Program Focus
- Neuromuscular Readiness: Re-educating movement patterns and improving the communication between your nervous system and muscles.
- Compensatory Correction: Ensuring your body isn't "favoring" an old injury, keeping your entire frame balanced to prevent a cycle of re-injury.
- Range of Motion & Reset: Prioritizing joint mobilization to restore fluid, pain-free motion and calm the body’s protective response.
The Functional Recovery Protocol: Specialist + Trainer
- Mobility (The Specialist): Restoring joint range of motion and tissue extensibility to eliminate "guarding" patterns.
- Metabolism (The Trainer): Increasing localized blood flow and systemic endurance to support tissue recovery.
- Posture (The Specialist): Re-training symmetrical loading to ensure you aren't over-compensating on your "good side."
Adaptive By Design™: Levels of Participation
- Level 1 (Bed/Couch): Focused on gentle mobility and core activation. Ideal for the early stages of recovery or days when you need to stay supported.
- Level 2 (Seated): Focused on controlled range of motion and postural stability while utilizing the safety of a chair.
- Level 3 (Standing/Active): For those ready for weight-bearing exercises, balance work, and functional movements in an upright position.
One Community: Recovery is non-linear. No matter which level you choose, you are a full participant in our family.
amaDEO Circle™
"Recovery can be a long road, and no one should walk it alone. The final 10 minutes of every session are dedicated to the amaDEO Circle™—a space to ask questions, share wins, and find encouragement. We welcome caregivers to join the Circle to learn how to best support your movement journey at home."
