You Can Have a Quicker Recovery After Surgery With Pre-Hab!

August 10, 2024

Do you require surgical intervention? Do you work in a physically  demanding job or participate in a physically demanding sport? Is it true  that your muscles and joints are weaker than they once were? If you  recognize yourself in any of these instances, preventative  rehabilitation, sometimes known as “pre-hab,” may be beneficial.

Participating in pre-hab therapies has several advantages. It can  help the body heal faster and avoid injuries, all while speeding up  recovery time. Pre-hab can be divided into two categories: Pre-hab for  injury prevention and pre-hab for surgical recovery are two different  types of pre-hab.

Contact our office now to learn more about the numerous types of pre-hab and how it can help you!

Recovery doesn’t have to take months of your time…

Many people are afraid of the long recovery times that come with  surgical operations. This is particularly true for people who have had  total joint replacements. When faced with the prospect of spending time  in a rehabilitation facility, many people put off joint replacement  surgery because they are afraid of the long and arduous recovery ahead.

Pre-hab, fortunately, can considerably shorten recovery time. Did you  know that participating in preventative rehabilitation can lower your  chances of needing inpatient rehab by 73%? You will fulfill your  physical milestones much faster after surgery if you are stronger before  surgery, reducing your recovery period by days or even weeks.

For example, patients who undergo total knee replacement surgery are  typically expected to walk 500-1,000 feet 24 hours after their  procedure. This may sound like a difficult task; however, those who  participate in pre-hab before their surgery are much more likely to meet  this demand than those who do not.

Did you know you can prevent injuries with pre-hab as well?

Pre-hab is a great resource for those prone to injuries, or for those  at risk of developing injuries. To figure out where your problem areas  are, you will complete a thorough evaluation with your physical therapist to determine what your treatment plan will consist of. These typically  include a combination of exercises, stretches, and pain-relieving  techniques that target areas where injuries are likely to occur.

Military personnel, for example, are more likely to suffer foot,  knee, hip, and back problems as a result of the rigors of training and  combat. Many of these injuries can be avoided with pre-hab, which  teaches good posture, core strengthening exercises, and lifting  techniques to keep service members strong and healthy. Firefighters,  manufacturing workers, and other personnel in physically demanding jobs  are in the same boat.

Both pro and amateur athletes can also benefit from pre-hab  treatments. Their treatment will focus on targeting poor technique and  doing conditioning exercises to correct it. Their physical therapists  will also focus more on the areas of their body that are repeatedly  stressed and overused by their sport, determining their likelihood of  injury and creating a plan to reverse that likelihood.

Through strength and balance training, physical therapy treatments  typically aim to increase mobility and pain alleviation. Pre-hab can  help you enhance your physical talents while lowering your chance of  injury in your activity or employment.

Patients receive the stretches, strengthening exercises, and  pain-relieving treatments they need for a quick and pain-free recovery  during pre-hab.
