Introducing Ethos Wellbeing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Structured Movement Therapy (SMT) for individuals recovering from COVID-19<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ethos Education Programme has been designed to improve clinical outcomes and early mobilisation through 6 CPD training modules and Skills Workshops. Developed in partnership with Personally ProActive <\/strong>during lockdown, we are delighted to introduce you to Ethos Wellbeing<\/strong> \u2013 a Structured Movement Therapy (SMT) Programme for individuals recovering from COVID-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rehabilitation at all stages (in both hospitals and the community) is critical to maintain the flow of patients and free up bed capacity to treat more critically ill patients. Up to 25% of hospitalised COVID-19 patients will need to be in intensive care, often for prolonged periods, and 67% of them will have acute respiratory distress syndrome. Rehabilitation through the Ethos Wellbeing Programme enables people to clear their airways, manage their breathing and promote a general sense of wellbeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developed for those recovering from COVID-19, the 3-stage SMT programme may also be suitable for people deconditioning from self-isolating (e.g. reduced muscle strength \u2013 power, balance and stamina), those experiencing poor mental health due to self-isolating, and people with a range of conditions whose rehabilitation programme may have been interrupted due to the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The faces behind\u00a0Personally ProActive<\/strong>\u00a0are two experienced professionals in their field of exercise rehabilitation \u2013 Amanda Burroughs* and Sally Parsons.**<\/p>\n\n\n\n
