Active assisted exercises are a form of rehabilitation exercise where the patient actively participates in the movement but receives assistance from a therapist or assistive device. This technique is commonly used to improve joint range of motion, muscle strength, and coordination when a patient has limited mobility or strength.

The therapist may provide support to facilitate the movement or correct the form, allowing the patient to engage the muscle and joint in the exercise. Active assisted exercises are beneficial for individuals recovering from injury, surgery, or neurological conditions that impair motor control.

This technique helps to gradually restore strength and mobility, enabling patients to regain independence and function.
