+ Rotator Cuff Surgery

Severe rotator cuff injuries or tears often require surgery to relieve pain and restore the movement and function of an injured shoulder. There are several different types of rotator cuff surgeries. Each one requires a well-executed rehabilitation plan to avoid complications and get you back to an active lifestyle. Our goal for your shoulder is strength and a functional range of motion.

+ Carpal Tunnel Surgery

Carpal tunnel syndrome causes numbing, weakness, pain, and tingling in the fingers, hand, and arm. Severe cases are treated with surgery. Our physical and occupational therapists can help your recover from carpal tunnel surgery by preventing scar formation, restoring wrist strength, and learning new habits to prevent a recurrence.

+ Ankle Surgery

There are several types of surgeries used to repair a damaged ankle. After surgery, physical therapy is needed to help prevent blood clots, reduce pain and swelling, increase strength, and restore a functional range of motion. We can help you maintain healthy ankles that are essential to an active and mobile lifestyle.

+ Shoulder Surgery

Whether you have had arthroscopic shoulder repair or a shoulder replacement, we can help you have a safe and successful surgery. The shoulder plays a critical role in most upper body movements. After surgery, we help your shoulder get stronger, more flexible, and regain the range of motion essential to many daily activities.

+ Back Surgery

Back surgeries are common, and the numbers performed grow each year. Unfortunately, most people have back surgery due to severe pain. Our goal in helping you recover is getting you to the point where you can move and function each day without back pain. We employ exercises and therapies to strengthen and stabilize your back for a full surgical recovery.

There are many benefits to rehab your hip with our movement specialists. We can help you strengthen your hip joint and surrounding muscles, improve your range of motion, and get you back to the activities you enjoy.
