Functional limb re-education is a rehabilitation technique designed to restore normal movement patterns and functional abilities in a limb that has been impaired due to injury, surgery, or neurological conditions. The approach focuses on improving strength, range of motion, and coordination to allow the individual to use the affected limb effectively in daily activities.

Therapists use targeted exercises, manual therapy, and neuromuscular re-education techniques to retrain the muscles and joints to work together properly. This may involve activities like weight-bearing exercises, proprioceptive training, and motor skill drills.

Functional limb re-education is essential for regaining independence, improving the use of the affected limb, and restoring quality of life for individuals recovering from musculoskeletal or neurological impairments.
