What is Post-Surgical Rehabilitation?
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation is a structured program aimed at restoring mobility, strength, and function after surgery. It involves a combination of therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, and other specialized techniques to promote healing and prevent complications. Our goal is to help you recover faster and more effectively, ensuring a smooth transition back to your normal life.
