POST-SURGICAL REHAB HOW WE TAILOR YOUR RECOVERY PLAN TO YOU!

Surgery can be one of the most challenging experiences in anyone’s life. The physical toll it takes on the body is so profound that no other medical procedure can mimic it. Injuries that result in surgery are mentally, physically, and emotionally difficult. And because each injury is different, each road to recovery is unique and complex. Helping a patient recover post-surgery requires a keen understanding of the nature of their injury. Every patient is different, and because of this it’s important that we tailor each rehabilitation program to the specific physical ailment. What works for a 55-year-old coming off back surgery is different than what works for a 23-year-old recovering from an ACL tear. We accurately identify your needs and make sure your plan gets you back to full health.

Post-surgical rehab is unique because there is no diagnosis needed. The type of surgery tells us precisely what is required for your rehab. This allows us to use proven therapy techniques and pair them with individualized instruction to smooth your path to recovery. Rehabilitation takes time and the key to its success is desire. That’s why we focus on helping you feel empowered throughout the process. Coming back from surgery may take a huge physical toll, but that’s only half the battle. Having the proper mentality is crucial, and our team takes great pride in its ability to drive patients toward success. We can help, but ultimately you are the key to your recovery.
