Pre-and Post-Operative and Joint Replacement Therapy

Pre-operative rehabilitation helps to improve muscle memory for patients preparing to have surgery. The goal in pre-operative rehabilitation is to speed post-operative recovery. Many patients with upcoming surgeries go months or years avoiding the use of a certain area of body part. Through pre-operative rehabilitation, therapists can help patients to maximize the functional use of that body part before surgery.

Post-operative rehabilitation helps patients return to normal activities after surgery. Whether this means high-level sports or grocery shopping, the therapist will create a post-operative rehabilitation plan to fit the patient’s needs. The therapist typically assesses the patient’s preexisting level of function before determining how long post-operative care will last.
