WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM JOINT REPLACEMENT THERAPY?
HEALTHY RECIPE : DELICIOUS SALMON BURGERS!
Your initial appointment will consist of a physical evaluation to determine what course of treatment will be best for your needs. Your physical therapist will create a specialized treatment plan based on your evaluation, aimed at rehabilitation, functional improvement, and bringing you back to your optimum physical health. At first, your treatment plan will consist of passive physical therapy, which is primarily focused on pain relief and recovery. This may include manual therapy, gentle therapeutic exercises, or any other combination of treatment services that your physical therapist deems for your treatment plan.
After your passive therapy, you will continue into active physical therapy treatments. These will include strengthening exercises that your physical therapist will guide you through, in addition to at-home treatments that you will do on your own. These will all help in making your recovery as quick and comfortable as possible, all while improving your joint function! If you believe you could benefit from our joint replacement therapy services, don’t hesitate to contact PTRC today. We will get you back to living life on your own terms as quickly as possible, without the daily worry of pain or limiting joints!
