Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
After a comprehensive intake, a tailored physical therapy program will be provided that consists of elements specifically designed for this population that best target the patients goal(s) related to physical activity and staying fit in order to carry out normal activities of daily living. Dependent on the nature of this tailoring, the program content may differ from patient to patient and may range from specific resistance (e.g. leg press) and/or aerobic (e.g. cycling) exercises, functional exercises (e.g. stair climbing), or relaxation exercises (e.g. progressive muscle relaxation). The combination of exercises can be provided either in person or (partly) via an eHealth platform (Physitrack).
