If you have recently undergone a total joint replacement of the knee, hip, shoulder, thumb, or ankle, physical therapy can benefit you. Our clinics provide joint replacement rehabilitation.
Common Causes Of Total Joint Replacement
Total joint replacement surgery is typically recommended for those who:
- Have severe joint damage. This is typically due to arthritic debilitation, either from osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
- Experienced severe trauma to the joint(s).
- Suffer from chronic joint pains.
How Will Physical Therapy Help Me?
Physical therapy will be important in the rehabilitation process for your total joint replacement. Our physical therapist in Warminster and New Britain, PA will provide a treatment plan for you that will assist in restoring your range of motion, flexibility, strength, endurance, and overall mobility. Physical therapy treatments can also benefit you both before and after your procedure in order to make sure that your recovery process is as smooth as possible.
What Should I Expect?
Your initial appointment will consist of a physical evaluation to determine what course of treatment will be best for your needs. Our physical therapist will create a specialized treatment plan based on your evaluation, aimed at reducing your pain, restoring your function and bringing you back to your optimum physical health.
At first, your treatment plan will consist of passive physical therapy, which is primarily focused on pain relief and recovery. This may include manual therapy and gentle therapeutic exercises. After your passive therapy, you will continue into active physical therapy treatments. These will include stretching and strengthening exercises to restore your normal function!
