Pre/Post-Surgical Recovery
Manual Physical Therapy
Surgery is scary and the recovery is hard, but RPI will be with you every step of the way to get you back to work, sport, or daily activities.
At times, surgeons will refer you to physical therapy prior to your surgery. Prehab or rehabilitation prior to surgery, can help strengthen muscles prior to surgery to ease recovery after. When strengthening prior to surgery, it can be easier to connect the brain to the muscles that will be cut after surgery.
Physical therapy is very important after surgery to ensure full recovery. We can help you gain full range of motion, improve strength, and get you moving again. Our therapists work with your surgeon to follow their specific protocols for the best recovery possible.
Whether you had a joint replacement, ligament reconstruction, nerve release, or muscle tear repair, RPI is your best choice for pre- and post-surgical care! Call our Clayton office at 314-644-1978 or Creve Coeur office at 314-648-8266 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
