What will a post-surgical rehab plan look like?

Whatever you may need surgery for, Health Source Physical Therapy can help you get to your optimum levels of function afterward.

While your physician may recommend pain management drugs, physical therapy has been known to relieve pain without the need for them.

Pain-killing drugs mask the pain while physical therapy resolves the issue where its originating. This is achieved with specialized methods, techniques, and modalities, such as ultrasound, joint mobilizations, laser therapy, electrical stimulation, and home exercise programs.

The days and weeks following a surgical procedure may result in physical limitations. Your physical therapist can advise you on ways to accommodate for such limitations, such as how to go up and down the stairs, put on clothes, or get in and out of a car.

This can be done with the assistance of adaptive tools to compensate for reduced movement. By making these accommodations, you will be able to move around comfortably while also working to restore the normal range of movement in your body.

Our Portland physical therapists are dedicated to making sure you are living a healthy life, even after your post-surgical rehab treatments are over.

Because of this, part of your treatment plan will also include education on any lifestyle and/or nutritional changes you can make to optimize your long-term health, avoid injuring yourself and avoid the need for additional surgeries in the future.
