Post-Surgical Rehab

Physical Therapy After Surgery

After surgery, many patients need help rebuilding mobility, reducing stiffness, restoring strength, and returning to normal activities. Post-surgical rehabilitation may help you:
  • Improve range of motion
  • Rebuild strength
  • Reduce stiffness and swelling
  • Improve walking, balance, or stair confidence
  • Return to work, hobbies, exercise, or daily tasks
  • Understand safe movement during each stage of recovery
  • Follow surgeon precautions and protocol when applicable
Your treatment plan will depend on your procedure, healing stage, surgeon guidance, and physical therapy evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? We’re here to help!

The timing depends on your procedure and your surgeon’s instructions. Some patients begin soon after surgery, while others need to wait until they are cleared. Follow your surgeon’s guidance and contact us if you need help scheduling around your post-operative plan.

Referral requirements can depend on your surgeon, insurance plan, and procedure. Our team can help you understand what may be needed before your first visit.

Bring your insurance information, surgical instructions, post-operative protocol if you received one, medication list if relevant, and any restrictions from your surgeon.

Physical therapy is commonly part of knee replacement recovery. It may help improve knee motion, strength, walking, balance, and daily function based on your evaluation and surgeon guidance.

Recovery length varies by surgery, healing, goals, and medical instructions. Your therapist will discuss a recommended plan after evaluating your current stage of recovery.
