Pre-Surgical Rehabilitation
Prepare Your Body for a Smoother, Faster Recovery
If you’re planning to undergo surgery, preparing your body before the procedure can significantly improve your outcome. At ESR Physical Therapy in NYC, our Pre-Surgical Rehabilitation programs are designed to strengthen your body, reduce pain, improve mobility, and speed up your post-operative recovery.
By working with a physical therapist before surgery, you can build a solid foundation for healing—and often shorten the time it takes to get back to your normal routine.
What Is Pre-Surgical Rehab?
Pre-surgical rehabilitation is a targeted physical therapy program designed to:
- Improve strength, balance, and flexibility before surgery
- Increase joint mobility and range of motion
- Reduce inflammation and pain
- Educate you on post-surgery exercises and precautions
- Mentally and physically prepare you for the surgical process
- Minimize complications and reduce hospital stay time
Pre-Surgical rehabilitation is especially beneficial before surgeries such as:
- Total knee or hip replacement
- ACL reconstruction
- Rotator cuff or shoulder surgery
- Spinal surgery
- Orthopedic procedures for fractures or joint injuries
