Which surgeries require pre and post-operative care?
Joint Replacement Surgery
Joint replacement surgeries including shoulder, hip and knee replacements, necessitate specialized physical therapy to reestablish range of motion, strength and mobility. Recent studies have indicated that patients who engaged in physical therapy following joint replacement surgery experienced superior pain management, functionality, and quality of life outcomes compared to those who did not undergo physical therapy. By integrating manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and functional training, physical therapists aid patients in restoring balance and movement while alleviating pain and inflammation.
Spinal Surgery
Spinal surgery, encompassing lumbar and cervical procedures, frequently requires physical therapy to manage post-operative limitations. Through emphasis on core stabilization, spinal alignment, and flexibility, physical therapists offer a holistic approach to rehabilitation.
Other Orthopedic Surgery
Orthopedic surgeries address a variety of conditions, spanning from joint replacements and fractures to tendon or ligament repairs and spinal surgeries. Procedures like rotator cuff repair or ACL reconstruction often require physical therapy to aid in the rehabilitation of the affected joint or muscle. These interventions may be essential in response to injury, disease, or age-related degeneration.
At DuPont Physical Therapy, we specialize in aiding recovery from a variety of surgeries. Our goal is to assist you in restoring your range of motion, strength, and function following surgery.
