Benefits of Post-Surgical PT

Your body goes through a lot during and after surgery, and our goal is to help you regain strength, range of motion, mobility, and more with our post-surgical physical therapy rehabilitation. We will have you do exercises to help build and strengthen your muscles, particularly those around the joints or areas of surgery, and we utilize physical therapy treatments that will help your bones and soft tissues rebuild and rejuvenate. Being active with post-surgical physical therapy will help increase circulation after surgery, which brings about faster and more effective healing, and can help minimize medical complications associated with post-surgical immobility. Physical therapy after surgery will help you improve your balance and mobility once again, allowing you to get back to your normal life much faster.

Our Comprehensive Care Makes Physical Therapy Rehabilitation More Effective

Our entire staff works together to provide the most comprehensive medical care available in Atlanta. This means that our chiropractors, physical therapists, orthopedists, neurosurgeons, and more collaborate to offer the best care to all of our patients. They work together to create personalized care plans, and they discuss patients’ needs as they transition between different doctors and different stages of their recovery. This means that your orthopedic surgeon and your physical therapist are working together to ensure you’re getting the best post-surgical physical therapy for you and your particular circumstance, which leads to better treatment and more effective healing. Additionally, we have some of the best imaging technology available today so that we can monitor your progress and ensure our treatments are appropriate and effective throughout the entirety of your recovery.

Diagnostics

MRI

Orthopedic surgeons will order one to two MRI scans after surgery. The first MRI scan, a few days after a medical procedure will help orthopedic specialists examine and assess the injury post-surgery to see if the problem has been corrected. An MRI scan a few weeks after your surgery can show how your injury is healing. Physical therapists can also benefit from the use of MRI scans. Post-surgery scan can show scar tissue build up or other issues that physical therapists can work with you to address to improve balance and range of motion for faster healing time.

CT Scan

CT scans take multiple images from various angles to view the source of musculoskeletal pain or injury. Post-surgical CT scans can again give orthopedic surgeons a clear image of the initial problem to see how it is healing after surgery. Physical therapists use CT scans combined with a physical assessment of symptoms to form a post-surgical treatment plan that is most effective for treating your injury. The goal of physical therapy post-surgery is to get your joints and muscles stronger for a quicker recovery and complete healing. Más información acerca de CT Scan

X-Ray

X-Rays work much like CT scans except that they only provide an image from one angle. However, for more routine surgeries, a CT scan from various angles may not be necessary and an X-ray can suffice. Physical therapists can glean the information they need to provide a treatment plan from an X-Ray as they can a CT scan. If for some reason physical therapy isn’t working as expected, then a physical therapist may suggest a more detailed CT scan or MRI to see if there is another problem that needs to be treated as well.

Nerve Testing

In the same way other imaging technology is used, EMG and NCV testing after surgery can provide an assessment for ensuring that the surgery went as planned and addressed the root cause of your previous nerve pain or dysfunction. After any kind of surgery, physical therapists will want to help you continue to improve your range of motion and overall function so that you can be back on your feet as soon as possible.

Yesterday was my last day at AICA College Park since my accident in December, there is so much to say about the people who work here and the level of customer service, care, attention, friendliness, and overall amazing atmosphere that they provide. Location is perfect in College Park, right off the highway and in a small plaza with plenty of parking. The entire staff, from the front desk girls, to the physical therapy girls, to the chiros, and the medical team are AMAZING! I feel like I just lost my friends not being able to visit them twice a week every week. I will definitely miss coming here. All the smiles and warm welcomes received. The physical therapy - asking about my day, if everything is okay and helping my back and neck get better. I had the pleasure of having Dr. Hector as my chiropractor, he is awesome, was very helpful in the healing process and also a native Spanish speaker which is a plus for those of us who do speak Spanish. Before coming to AICA, I tried another injury clinic in ATL and walked out after 5 mins - so impersonal and cold. I am so glad that I found AICA in College Park. Trust me, if you are injured and need some healing and TLC you NEED to come to this clinic! Highly recommend to everyone. Thank you again to the guys and girls at AICA - xo Ms. Colon
