Energy conservation refers to the way activities are done to minimize muscle fatigue, joint stress, and pain. By using the body efficiently and doing things in a sequential way, you can save your energy. Work Simplification and Energy Conservation principles will allow a person to remain independent and be less frustrated by their illness when their energy lasts throughout the day[1].
Examples of people that benefit with energy conservation techniques include people with:
- COPD and respiratory conditions
- Chronic pain clients
- After Hospital stays
- Deconditioned clients
- Arthritis clients
