Post-Operative Physical Therapy

Reddy Care Physical & Occupational Therapy Blog Post-Operative Physical Therapy
Physical Therapy Post Op

After a major surgery, a rehabilitation program with a physical therapist is often needed to help you get back on your feet as soon as possible. Recovery after certain procedures like hip and knee replacements and other orthopedic surgeries can be greatly eased by the right physical therapy treatment. 

 

Besides improving recovery time, and reducing pain, post-operative physical therapy has a number of benefits. Some other advantages include:


Your post-operative plan will depend on your surgery and specific condition. Your therapist will evaluate you one-on-one and put together a personalized treatment plan. A big component of most treatment plans is exercise. Specific exercises and stretches can help improve flexibility and range-of-motion and increase your strength and function.  Manual therapy and massage can be incorporated to relieve tension and to minimize the formation of scar tissue. Another treatment your therapist may use is electrical stimulation, this can promote healing and improve muscle function. Your therapist will evaluate your progress and make sure you heal well and help prevent further injury. 

 

It’s important to get the right care and to get connected with the right physical therapist who understands your needs.
