After surgery, the healing process can limit mobility, flexibility, and joint function.
Post-surgical physical therapy is essential for restoring movement and strength.
Post-surgical physical therapy is beneficial for a range of procedures, including shoulder surgeries such as rotator cuff repair, SLAP repair, labrum repair, and shoulder replacement; knee procedures like ACL and MCL repair, meniscus meniscectomy or repair, knee replacement, and patellar dislocation treatment; hip surgeries including hip replacement, labral repair, and hip impingement correction; and spinal procedures like spinal fusion, discectomy, and laminectomy. It is also essential for recovery from other surgeries, such as fracture repair, Achilles rupture surgery, bunionectomy, and carpal tunnel surgery, aiding in mobility restoration and strength rebuilding.
Post-surgical physical therapy typically progresses through multiple phases. After a comprehensive assessment, our physical therapists collaborate with your surgeon to understand the procedure and any necessary rehabilitation protocols.
The initial phase begins immediately after surgery, focusing on managing pain, swelling, and inflammation. This is followed by a structured series of progressively challenging exercises to restore range of motion, stability, and strength. The final phase aims to help you regain full function and return to your pre-injury activity level.
Soft Tissue Release is a hands-on therapy that helps relieve pain, muscle spasms, and swelling by targeting tight or restricted soft tissues to improve mobility and circulation.
Active compression and cold therapy combine targeted pressure with cooling to reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation while promoting faster recovery.
We use hands-on approaches to mobilize joints, reduce muscle tension, and improve movement, aiding in pain relief and recovery.
A variety of therapeutic modalities are used to reduce pain, inflammation, and muscle tension while promoting healing, such as Ice therapy , heat therapy, electrical stimulation, ultrasound therapy, cupping therapy.
Self-care training equips patients with essential techniques to manage daily activities, maintain mobility, and prevent reinjury, promoting independence in recovery.
Home exercise programs are personalized rehabilitation routines designed to enhance recovery, improve mobility, and strengthen muscles, allowing patients to continue progress outside of therapy sessions.
