If an exercise causes me pain, what should I do?

It’s normal to experience some discomfort when completing an exercise, however, that discomfort should be tolerable and ease quickly, you shouldn’t be left with any notable aggravation of your symptoms.

Exercises should only be completed within comfortable ranges – it’s important that you don’t push yourself too soon as this may aggravate your symptoms and slow your recovery.

If you experience a notable change in your pain or symptoms, stop completing the exercises and speak to a member of the HCML team for some further guidance – you can do this through the contact us option or you can speak to HCML via 0333 023 0155 (calls are recorded for quality and training purposes and may be made available to your insurer).
