Therapeutic exercise refers to a wide range of physical activities that focuses on restoring and maintaining strength, endurance, flexibility, stability and balance. The goal of therapeutic exercises is to return an injured patient to a fully functioning, pain-free state. They can increase a patient’s functional capabilities and prevent loss of function. If you are aiming to prevent and/or decrease impairment and disability, therapeutic exercises might be very helpful. Your overall health, fitness, and sense of well being can benefit from these techniques.
Types of Therapeutic Exercises
Therapeutic exercises are classified according to their aim and purpose:
- Range of motion exercises aim to maintain and increase range of motion as traditional ROM exercises (passive, active and active assisted ROM exercises) and techniques of joint mobilization and soft tissue stretching.
- Muscle performance exercises for increasing muscle strength, power and endurance as resisted exercises and endurance exercises.
- Postural exercises to improve posture and correct faulty posture.
- Balance and coordination exercises to improve balance and coordination.
- Relaxation exercises to induce relaxation.
- Area specific exercises such as targeted muscle groups for activities like breathing and the circulatory system.

As a professional dancer, I’ve worked with quite a few physical therapists over the years, and I can honestly say that Dr. Ashesh is one of the absolute best! Dr. Ashesh created a plan that was unique to me and my physical therapy goals. It was very refreshing to see how much he listened to ensure that I wasn’t just healing to function at the level that a normal adult would need, but was healing so that I could do all physical elements required of me in the dance company that I’m in. If anything happens in the future I would 100% go back to Dr. Ashesh. For anyone in need of an amazing PT, I highly recommend him!
Dr. Ashesh was one of the better therapist I have seen over the years due to neck and lower back surgeries on retaining mobility. He works one on one the entire time you are there. He worked on stretching my muscles for several weeks to regain mobility and then strengthen the core muscles. He is very friendly with his clients and encourages everyone to keep working on home exercise program he assembles specifically for you. He will set a goal with you at the first session which the both of you will work towards. I find him very knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend Active Kare Physical Therapist for anyone in this area. Also recommended this place to several of my local Doctors in this area.
This is the best place you can come for Physical Therapy. Usually at all other places, one therapist will handle multiple patients, the therapist will give you an exercise, move on to the next patient and come back to you after some time. Ashesh works alone and handles one patient during one appointment slot, so you have his undivided attention all the time. And especially now, you are isolated from other patients, so it is safe also. Ashesh is a wonderful therapist, I came last year for back pain - fully resolved, and came back this year because of a shoulder injury- I fully recommend this place for anyone considering PT. It is like having a personal physician directing the exercises
Dr Ashesh is the best dr ever cared for me!! He’s hands on. Very skilled smart Dr & professional. Everyday I see improvements. He does work on not only the physical aspect of care but mental motivation & positive attitude as well. I tried different therapists but I canceled my appointments with them. He’s a hard working dr & cares about his patients. He’s soul goal is to make difference in patient’s life & see positive outcomes every time you see him. I recommend this Dr %100.
I went to Active Kare physical therapy today for my first appointment. The office is very spacious and very open. The doctor and his team are very friendly. Dr. Ashesh took care of me very well. He did a thorough evaluation and asked a lot of questions. He took his time and did not rush. We did a series of therapies and I felt really good after. I will continue to see Dr. Ashesh. 10 stars all around. Thank You!
