Pre/Post Surgery Physical Therapy
Scheduled for surgery? Did you know you should have PT before AND after surgery?
Before surgery – To address joint motion loss, weak muscles, poor movement patterns, and pain which typically worsen leading up to the surgery. -To allow for quicker and better recovery post-operatively.
After surgery – To rehab properly and have quicker return of function to meet your activity goals.
Think surgery is your only option? Many conditions, if they are addressed early enough, never decline to the point that surgical intervention is necessary. Your physical therapist will be able to tell you if you need PT or if a referral for other medical services is advisable.
