Physical Therapy Before and After Surgery

We work with your surgeon to tell you how much activity you can do, depending on the type of surgery you have. It can make a huge difference if you come to physical therapy prior to surgery to increase your strength and motion to help with recovery after surgery. We work with doctors to help patients delay or avoid the need for surgery. Following surgery, we work with you and your doctor to design a personalized rehabilitation program for you and help you gain the strength, movement, and endurance you need to return to performing the activities you did before.
