Preparing Before Surgery

Pre-surgery conditioning exercises may be beneficial. Elite Spine & Sports Care of Totowa provides a pre-operative conditioning regimen for patients in Totowa and all of Passaic County as well as surrounding nearby locations. The kind of conditioning recommended to patients before surgery depends upon the patient and the type of surgery they are about to undergo. To ensure a successful surgery and hasten healing, specialized physical therapy exercise to minimize side effects and hopefully shorten recovery time is recommended. The patient’s pre-surgery physical condition is assessed by a trained Physical Therapist. The therapist will then create a plan to improve muscle strength before a surgical procedure. This is beneficial in preparing for an operation and can help speed recovery and healing after surgery. The regimen of pre-surgery exercise is provided by certified and qualified therapists.

Rehabilitation After Surgery

Post-operative care is important in the healing process and is a good test of the effectiveness of the surgery. The Physical Therapists at Elite Spine and Sports Care of Totowa know that surgeries vary and adjust their post-op rehabilitation to the condition of the patient. A customized plan is drawn up to aid in a patient’s full and quick recovery. After surgery such as knee or hip replacement, or other physically disabling procedures, a plan for active rehabilitation is required. It’s necessary to get moving to regain strength, balance and mobility.
