A new resource for pain and injury recovery has been released, offering structured exercise programs for 50 common conditions. The guide, detailed in author Tom Walters’ new book, Rehab Science: How to Overcome Pain and Heal from Injury, builds on the principles used in Walters’ Rehab Science App.
The book provides comprehensive rehabilitation exercise programs, accompanied by illustrative images of the exercises themselves. This release follows the growing popularity of the Rehab Science App, which offers a step-by-step approach to pain management and movement restoration based on evidence-based methods, according to the app’s website.
The University of Pittsburgh’s School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences (SHRS) offers a Bachelor of Science in Rehabilitation Science, designed as preparation for graduate studies in fields like physical and occupational therapy. The program, which begins accepting applications on October 6, 2025, and closes on March 1, 2026, includes coursework in anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, and neuroscience. Students can as well pursue certificate programs within the degree.
Walters’ approach, as reflected in both the app and the book, focuses on structured programs and clear instruction. The Rehab Science App aims to guide users through recovery, while the book expands on this with a broader range of conditions and detailed visual aids. The University of Pittsburgh’s program similarly emphasizes a rigorous curriculum designed to prepare students for advanced clinical work.
The Rehab Science App is positioned as a guide for individuals struggling with pain or injury, offering progressions designed to facilitate healing. The book provides a more extensive resource, covering a wider spectrum of common injuries, and conditions.
