01 Dec Forget-Me-Not Physio: Patient-Approved Tips to Remember Your Exercises
Embarking on a physiotherapy journey can be transformative, but the real challenge lies in maintaining consistency with prescribed exercises. At Etobicoke SportMed& Physiotherapy, we’ve gathered insights from our patients to share valuable tips on how to remember and integrate your physio exercises seamlessly into your routine.
1. Set Reminders and Alarms: In the hustle and bustle of daily life, it’s easy to forget your exercises. Set reminders on your phone or use alarms to prompt you to dedicate time to your physio routine. Consistency is key, and these reminders can be invaluable in building a habit.
2. Integrate Exercises into Daily Rituals: Incorporate your physio exercises into existing daily rituals. Whether it’s during your morning routine, lunch break, or before bedtime, associating exercises with established habits makes them more likely to become second nature.
3. Create a Visual Schedule: Visual cues can be powerful memory aids. Create a visual schedule or chart displaying your exercises, and place it in a prominent location. Seeing your routine visually can serve as a daily prompt and a motivating visual reminder.
4. Partner Up for Accountability: Enlist a friend, family member, or workout buddy to join you in your physio routine. Having someone to share the journey not only provides accountability but also makes the experience more enjoyable and supportive.
5. Gamify Your Routine: Turn your physio exercises into a game. Set goals, track your progress, and reward yourself for consistency. This gamification approach adds a fun element to your routine and can boost motivation.
