Physical Therapy Slideboards
UltraSlide® is a staple in physical therapy and rehabilitation facilities, from professional sports teams to private practice clinics to hospitals. Since our inception, many users have benefited from slideboard physical therapy exercises. Sliding on the UltraSlide is a low-impact, closed chain functional exercise that emphasizes the frontal plane movement that is so critical for return to play and activities of daily living. Using the physical therapy slideboards also improves strength, balance, coordination, core strength, and proprioception. Many parts of the body can benefit from slideboard physical therapy exercises.
