Orthopedic Rehabilitation FAQs
What Is Orthopedic Rehabilitation?
Orthopedic rehabilitation focuses on treating the muscles, tendons, bones, ligaments, or joints that contribute to patient pain and limitations. Conservative, noninvasive therapies such as hands-on manual therapy, physical therapy modalities, and therapeutic exercises support more rapid recovery times. Orthopedic rehabilitation concentrates on the orthopedic system after illness, orthopedic surgery, or injury.
What Are Some Goals of Orthopedic Rehabilitation Programs?
The main focus of an orthopedic rehabilitation program is to restore the patient’s physical abilities. This requires building strength and endurance, minimizing pain, managing inflammation, and swelling, improving balance and mobility. All of these goals enhance the patient’s ability to perform the activities of daily living (ADL) and increase independence, confidence, and choice.
What Is the Meaning of the Rehabilitation Program?
Rehabilitation helps patients regain, maintain, or improve abilities needed for daily life that were lessened or lost as a result of disease, orthopedic surgery, or injury.
