If you’re going to have surgery soon, you should be thinking about life afterward. Recovery is not as simple as laying in bed until you are healed. In fact, this can be counterproductive. It’s also important to not overdo exercising, or you’ll risk causing further pain or harm. When it comes to recovering successfully from surgery, one option you can trust is physical therapy.
Physical therapists provide post-op rehabilitation services that help patients regain strength and mobility lost from surgery. The team at Peak Performance Physical Therapy can address your recovery needs and develop a treatment that helps you regain your independence.
How does physical therapy provide post-op rehabilitation?
Since surgery takes away a lot of your strength and mobility, it can be difficult to walk around. It may even be challenging to get dressed or go to the bathroom without the assistance of others.
The physical therapists at Peak Performance Physical Therapy work with their patients on a personal level to identify your specific recovery needs and develop a treatment plan that will help you:
- Experience less pain
- Regain your strength and mobility
- Restore your balance, coordination and range of motion
- Feel independent again
