Post-Surgical Patients

To ensure a successful recovery, surgeons regularly refer post-operative patients to our care to rebuild their strength, physical function, and daily mobility.

We provide dedicated, one-on-one, evidence-based therapy sessions to fast-track your recovery. Our goal is to get you back to your activities of daily living, work, hobbies, and sports safely and effectively. Your rehabilitation process is fully tailored to your specific injury and surgery.

Our team helps patients recover and rehabilitate from numerous orthopedic post-operative procedures, including:

Knee, hip and shoulder joint replacement

Reconstruction of any one of the four major knee ligaments: anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), medial collateral ligament (MCL). posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), and lateral collateral ligament (LCL)

Arthroscopic knee surgeries (such as meniscectomies, meniscal repairs)

Ligament and tendon repair, including Archilles tendon repairs

Anthropic hip surgeries (such as labral repairs)

Nerve release (such as cubital tunnel, radial tunnel, carpal tunnel, tarsal tunnel)

Neck and back surgery (such as fusion, laminectomy, decompression and discectomy)

Nerve compression release

Bone or joint fusion (arthrodesis)

Tendon transfers

Surgical fixation of fractures, including open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), a two-part surgery used to fix broken bones where the broken bone is reduced (put back into place) and an internal fixation device is placed on the bone (e.g., screws, plates, rods or pins) to hold the bone together.

Shoulder post-surgical recovery for rotator cuff tears, labral tears, superior labrum anterior and posterior (SLAP) tear or lesion, arthroscopy and more

Gait and balance training

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) – electrical muscle & nerve stimulation

Therapeutic exercise and functional strength training

Ultrasound
