Energy conservation techniques are strategies that help individuals manage their energy levels, reduce physical exertion, and improve overall functionality during daily tasks. These techniques are particularly useful for individuals with chronic conditions like multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, or after surgery, where fatigue is a common symptom.

Techniques may include planning tasks to avoid peak fatigue times, pacing activities, using assistive devices, and learning to rest between activities. Energy conservation also involves modifying daily routines to reduce unnecessary exertion while still maintaining functionality.

Energy conservation techniques are essential for improving the quality of life, reducing fatigue, and ensuring individuals with chronic conditions can perform daily activities without overexertion.
