The resistance bands we use in physical therapy are different from other bands, as they have a clinical purpose, calibrated resistance, and a progression protocol controlled by your physical therapist.
At SKÁL Fisioterapia Integral, we offer a kit of 4 therapeutic resistance bands, specifically selected for injury rehabilitation, low-impact muscle strengthening, and treatment continuity at home.
In rehabilitation, resistance isn’t applied randomly. Each tension level represents a specific load on the muscle or joint in recovery, moving from one color to the next is a clinical decision.
This principle, known as progressive elastic resistance dosing, is the same one your physical therapist applies during in-clinic sessions. The SKÁL kit lets you take that same therapeutic precision home with you.
Each color in the kit represents an increasing resistance level.
Progression between colors doesn’t depend on time, it depends on your clinical progress, which is why your physical therapist determines when to advance.
Elastic bands for therapeutic exercise allow you to work supporting muscles without joint impact, making them the go-to tool in early rehabilitation phases. Controlled tension activates tissue without overloading it, safely speeding up functional recovery.
For older adults, resistance bands offer an accessible, adaptable, and effective form of exercise. Working with elastic bands improves muscle strength, balance, and joint stability, key factors in fall prevention and maintaining functional independence.
70% of recovery happens outside the clinic. Exercise bands prescribed by your physical therapist help you maintain therapeutic progression between sessions, shorten recovery times, and consolidate the progress made at each clinical visit.
The kit includes all 4 therapeutic resistance bands (red, green, blue, and gray) in a single package, ready to integrate into your rehabilitation plan or at-home exercise program.
