Physical therapy and rehabilitation are common courses of treatment in people and have been traditionally used to speed up recovery after orthopedic surgery but can also provide many other benefits to our patients. Rehab not only treats injuries, but also prevents further injuries from occurring, can help strengthen muscles, keep joints flexible, and helps maintain normal joint function. Some examples of cases where rehab can help include arthritis, post-operative cases of knee or back surgery, weight loss, balance issues, etc.
