Post Joint Replacement Therapy

The goal of physical therapy after joint replacement surgery is to help restore you to your highest level of function, improve strength, flexibility, and range of motion. Our experienced physical therapists complete a thorough evaluation and will discuss your goals post-operatively in order to develop a treatment program best suited to your individual needs.

Patient and family education is also provided. While our therapists provide encouragement as you work toward your goals, commitment and active involvement also plays a key role in recovery. Because we understand the link between mobility and living a healthy lifestyle, our focus is to return you to the activities you enjoy.
