Pre-Surgical Conditions
Pre-surgical conditions are common and may include everything from arthritis to a large, herniated disc. Many people have pain related to these conditions before surgery. Physical therapy aims at decreasing pain, increasing mobility and strength while also preparing the patient for surgery. In addition to the conditions mentioned above, the therapist will work on making you as comfortable as possible while you prepare for surgery.
Depending on your situation, Greendale Physical Therapy can help you manage these conditions including:
- Gentle range-of-motion and strengthening exercises as tolerated
- Manual therapies
- Modalities including heat, ice, ultrasound, and electrical stimulation
- Patient education regarding activities, posture, and biomechanics
