Post-Surgical Rehabilitation

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation at Physical Therapy and Wellness by Design focuses on helping patients safely and effectively recover strength, mobility, and function after surgery. We understand that every surgical recovery is unique — whether following a joint replacement, ligament reconstruction, rotator cuff repair, spinal surgery, or other orthopedic or soft-tissue procedures.

Our individualized approach combines manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, movement retraining, neuromuscular re-education, and progressive strengthening to optimize healing and restore confidence. All interventions are performed in accordance with your post-operative protocol while being carefully tailored to your personal goals, tolerance, and recovery timeline.

Techniques such as joint mobilization, Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM), and pain-relieving modalities may be incorporated as and when clinically appropriate and needed to support tissue healing and improve comfort.

At Physical Therapy and Wellness by Design, we emphasize close communication with your surgeon’s recommendations and integrate individualized progression at a safe, evidence-based pace. Each session focuses on reducing pain and swelling, improving range of motion, rebuilding strength, and restoring proper movement patterns to help you return to your daily activities or athletic goals with confidence.

Through personalized, one-on-one care, our mission is to help you restore, recover, and rebuild — safely and successfully — after surgery.
