POST - OPERATION
Physical Therapy For Post-Operation
After surgery, your tissues, muscles and bones go through a period of healing. Because of this, your body needs to slowly return to everyday activities, which is why limiting mobility during recovery can sometimes result in improper healing. Side effects of this can include reduced range of motion, flexibility and functionality.
Post-operative physical therapy is the ideal way to encourage your body to heal. In fact, orthopedic surgeons believe that the success of their procedures is highly dependent on a personalized physical therapy plan.
Some Types of Surgery That Require PT
- Shoulder Surgery
- Back and Spine Surgery
- Knee Replacement Surgery
- Hip Replacement Surgery
- Ankle or Foot Surgery
- Rotator Cuff Repair
- Spinal Fusion
Benefits of Physical Therapy for Post-Op
After surgery, a person’s muscles can begin to weaken with fatigue losing strength and range of motion. Physical therapy not only helps you to regain that strength and improve the range of motion, but it also has several other less obvious benefits.
Benefits of physical therapy after surgery:
- Heal faster
- Minimize scar tissue buildup
- Non-medicated pain relief
