Orthopedic Rehabilitation FAQs 

What is Orthopedic Rehabilitation?

Orthopedic Rehabilitation treats patients with muscle, bone or joint pain or limitations. Physical therapists use conservative measures such as hands-on manual therapy, ultrasound or other modalities using technology and therapeutic exercise programs. 

What is the difference between physical therapy and orthopedic therapy?

Physical therapy is used to treat a wide variety of conditions. One of the specialized areas that physical therapists can choose to take additional training and education is orthopedic therapy. Orthopedics focus on the musculoskeletal system, so orthopedic physical therapy treats injuries to muscles, ligaments, tendons, and bones.

What are some goals of orthopedic rehabilitation programs?

Orthopedic rehabilitation programs aim to restore physical abilities, minimize pain, build greater strength and endurance, manage post-surgical swelling and inflammation, regain mobility and improve balance. Ultimately, orthopedic rehabilitation programs help patients enhance their skills to perform the activities of daily life (ADL) to optimize their independence and quality of life.
