Pre Surgical physiotherapy Edmonton

What is Pre-surgical?

Another name for pre-surgical rehabilitation is pre-hab. Globally, many surgeons have been recommending patients for pre-surgical rehabilitation to aid their recovery process after surgery. Research has also shown that patients who attend orthopedic, sports physiotherapy, and massage therapy a month or weeks to their surgery lower their recovery timeframe.

Although it has been observed that patients who are preparing for surgery do feel anxious or scared. Through pre-hab sessions, your mind can be calm, and tension can be reduced. One of the goals of pre-surgically rehabilitation is to ensure patients are physically and mentally prepared before going for surgery.

Why is pre-surgical physiotherapy important?

Surgery usually brings changes to your body functions. Most especially, after surgery, for some weeks, certain activities may seem difficult to perform. According to the National Institutes of health, performing therapeutic exercises before surgery can improve your post-operative results and recovery rate. That’s why going for this session is the best decision you can make before surgery.

Pre-surgical has effectively promoted pain relief, improved strength, improved motion range and movement pattern, and protected mental health before and after surgery. So as to ensure you recover quickly and return to your previous activities, going for orthopedic, sports physiotherapy, and massage therapy can help improve your physical and overall well-being.
