One of the most important parts of surgical intervention is the rehabilitation required after surgery. It only takes a couple of days of immobility before a body part becomes stiff and sore. Typically, protocols for rehabilitation are broken into three or four phases (depending on the surgery).
The specific rehabilitation protocol for your surgery will depend on instructions outlined by your surgeon. Here we will highlight a broad example of post surgery care with Physiotherapy@Woodbridge.
Phase 1: Early Recovery Phase
This phase begins usually one to two weeks after the surgery. General goals of phase 1 are to:
Phase 2: Strength & Range of Motion
Phase 3: Functional Restoration
