When you come for an amputation rehab program at our clinic, the outcome is after by different factors such as
- The overall health of a patient
- Extent of disability
- Type and level of amputation
- Supports from people (friends and family)
However, amputation rehab aims to help buildup amputated patients back to a level of independence and comfort through the use of orthopedic, sports physiotherapy, and massage therapy. During the program, we encouraged and educated them on things they could achieve, even as an amputee. Over time lots of amputees suffer from emotional distress and community rejection because of their conditions. But at Momentum Spine and Sports Physiotherapy Clinic, we focus on maximizing a patient performance function at home and in the community, promoting independence, and boosting self-esteem. Most importantly, we urge their loved ones to support them because that goes a long way after leaving each treatment session.
