At Advent Physical Therapy in Byron Center, MI, we are passionate about assisting patients with their musculoskeletal rehabilitative needs. We use the latest techniques and technology to provide treatments for a variety of conditions, including post-surgical rehabilitation.
For many patients, surgery is a last resort for treating an injury or physical conditions, but ultimately, it may be necessary for optimal recovery. One reason that people prefer to leave surgery as a last resort is that surgery requires a grueling recovery process with new physical challenges while your body heals.
At Advent Physical Therapy, our physical therapists can help you overcome these challenges with a comprehensive post-op rehab plan.
What is the goal of post-op rehab?
The main objective of physical therapy is to assist patients in rebuilding the strength and flexibility of muscles to help the body heal and to help with pain management. At Advent Physical Therapy, we understand that each post-op patient will have different goals depending on the nature of their surgery, including:
- Rebuilding strength and flexibility
- Developing balance and coordination
- Restoring range of motion
- Preventing the buildup of scar tissue
- Assisting in pain management
- Completing simple daily tasks, such as getting dressed
How Advent Physical Therapy can help you
