IF YOU A SPINALCORD INJURY AND ITS A PHYSICAL REHAB, THERES TWO THINGS THEY DO, 1 IS OT OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY 2 PT PHYSICAL THERAPY...
1 OT--------- IS TO TEACH YOU HOW TO LIVE AS A PERSON IN A WHEELCHAIR SUCH AS TRANSFER, BALANCE GETTING IN THE SHOWER THINGS OF LIVING A LIFE JUST IN A CHAIR...
2 PT--------- IS BASICALLY WORKING OUT! SRENGTHEN YOUR BODY! WEIGHT LIFTING AND MANY OTHER EXCERSIZE, EXCUSE MY SPELLING, IF THE REHAB YOU ARE GOING TO ITS PT/OT THEN THE INFO I GAVE YOU ITS SOME WHAT TO EXPECT..
GOOD LUCK
