Resistance Bands

Resistance Bands for Physiotherapy and Rehab

Resistance bands are widely used in physiotherapy for rehabilitation, mobility, and injury prevention. Our range includes trusted names like Thera-Band and Theragym, as well as affordable options like the Non-Looped Resistance Band and Shoulder Rope Pulley—perfect for regaining strength post-injury or improving joint health.

Power Bands for Strength and Conditioning

Power bands and physio bands offer variable resistance, making them ideal for progressive training. From the versatile Resistance Power Band to long-format Thera-Band Exercise Bands (46m), you’ll find the perfect match for strength training, resistance drills, or full-body workouts.

What's the main difference between resistance bands and power bands?

The main difference is that resistance bands are lighter and versatile for general fitness, stretching, and rehab, while power bands are thick, heavy loops designed for strength training, pull-up assistance, and explosive exercises.

Benefits of Using Resistance Bands

Resistance bands also known as fitness bands are an essential tool for fitness enthusiasts, athletes, and anyone looking to improve their overall mobility and strength. Here’s why they are a must-have for your training routine:

• Ideal for Rehabilitation and Recovery – Resistance bands allow you to perform low-impact exercises that gently strengthen muscles and joints, making them perfect for injury recovery and physical therapy.

• Lower Risk of Injury – Unlike heavy free weights, fitness bands provide controlled resistance without placing unnecessary stress on your joints, helping reduce the chance of workout-related injuries.

• Cost-Effective and Versatile – They offer a budget-friendly alternative to gym memberships or bulky workout machines, while still allowing for a full-body workout at home or on the go.

• Build Strength, Stability, and Mobility – Incorporating resistance and exercise bands into your workouts helps improve muscle tone, joint stability, and flexibility, supporting better movement in daily life and sports.

• Portable and Travel-Friendly – Lightweight and compact, resistance bands easily fit in your bag or luggage, so you can maintain your fitness routine or rehab exercises wherever you go.

With resistance bands, you can strengthen, stretch, and recover anytime, anywhere—no gym required.
