Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
The surgical process creates trauma which in turn leads to pain and protective muscle guarding in the affected area. Much of the initial phase of post-surgical rehabilitation is focused on decreasing this muscle guarding with gentle motion. When the joint is able to move through a relative normal range of motion and is near pain free at rest then the loading phase is initiated.
This phase is concerned with a progressive loading of the healing tissue and restoring normal biomechanics to the joints and surrounding soft tissue so the patient can perform stressful movements. As the patient is able to tolerate higher level activities then increased functional activities are allowed in their normal daily routine. Many orthopedic surgeries continue to heal for months after surgical intervention, so Post-Surgical Rehabilitation is crucial.
Overall goals of Post-Surgical Rehabilitation include: restoring range of motion, improving functional movement and strength, improving walking ability, balance and decreasing risk of falls, improving safety and efficiency of transfers, increasing cardiovascular endurance, improving coordination and sequencing of movement, and evaluating current equipment to make equipment recommendations.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Post-surgical rehabilitation is an essential component of the recovery process following any surgery, especially when it involves the spine or joints. Our experienced team works closely with each individual to help them regain strength, flexibility, and mobility.
One of the main focuses of post-surgical rehabilitation is pain management, through a combination of therapeutic exercises, stretching, and hands-on techniques. We also incorporate strategies to prevent muscle atrophy and promote blood flow to the affected areas.
Our holistic approach to rehabilitation also includes nutrition guidance, emotional and psychological support, and advanced treatment modalities such as dry needling, electrotherapy, cryotherapy, and ultrasound therapy to enhance tissue healing and accelerate recovery.
Research supports the benefits of post-surgical rehabilitation for improved recovery outcomes.
