Post Surgical Rehab
Physical therapy will help speed your recovery and reduce your pain after surgery whether you have had a joint replacement, heart surgery, or even a procedure to treat cancer. Therapy will help you to improve your mobility, strength, and coordination in order to be able to walk and perform normal tasks again. Post-operative physical therapy is crucial for the success of your surgery.
At Atlas Physical Therapy, your treatment will be adjusted and catered specifically for you. Manual therapy techniques will help you to feel and move better faster and exercises will be adjusted to your ability and ambition.
“Pre-hab”
Most people are familiar with the idea of rehab after surgery, but “pre-hab” before surgery is just as important. The time before the operation is extremely valuable and can be used to prepare the body prior to surgery. The stronger and better functioning you are before going under the knife, the better you will be afterward.
This content is a good example of treatment similar to what you will find at Atlas Physical Therapy.
Many of the bio-mechanical problems that caused the tissue damage (arthritis etc.) that led to the need for surgery will still be there after surgery. If these prior existing problems still exist, the same mechanical stresses that led to the need for surgery will still exert damaging stresses on that region that received the corrective operation.
Pre-hab aims to help correct the root of the problem as well as reduce pain and improve strength so that following surgery, your recovery will be much better. In some cases, people who have undergone skilled pre-hab and have fully recovered and not needed surgery.
