Graded Exercise Therapy

Graded Exercise Therapy (GET) is a structured rehabilitation approach used primarily for conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia. It involves a gradual increase in physical activity tailored to the individual's current fitness level, aiming to enhance stamina and reduce symptoms over time. The therapy typically starts with light exercises, progressively becoming more challenging, as the individual gains strength and endurance. GET is guided by healthcare professionals, ensuring that the activity increases safely without overwhelming the person. The overall goal is to promote physical and mental well-being, allowing individuals to regain function in their daily lives.
