- All surgeries are a big deal, whether it’s a short arthroscopic procedure, a total joint replacement, or a complex spine surgery, your body has to go through the 3 stages of healing. Our understanding of the bodies healing process and the structures involved in your surgery allow us to safely and efficiently progress you through your post-op rehabilitation. The initial goal after any surgery will be to get your pain and swelling under control and begin to restore your range of motion and strength. Once the pain and swelling is reduced and you have healed enough to start putting more stress on the surgical site, we will progress your exercises to include more functional activities and get you back to doing the things you love, and sometimes hate, like yard work, without pain or limitation!
