Assisted joint range of motion and stretching exercises can help maintain flexibility, reduce stiffness, and support mobility in individuals with limited movement. They are commonly used for patients recovering from illness, injury, or prolonged inactivity, and may help preserve joint health and physical function by encouraging regular movement as part of a rehabilitation or maintenance programme.
This page provides step-by-step video demonstrations covering the upper limbs, lower limbs, trunk, and key stretching exercises. Caregivers will learn safe techniques to assist with movements involving the shoulders, elbows, wrists, fingers, hips, knees, ankles, and toes, as well as important precautions to consider before starting an exercise programme.
Emphasis is placed on proper positioning, controlled movements, and caregiver body mechanics to ensure exercises are performed safely and comfortably.
