Joint Replacement Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation for joint replacement at HEJJE is tailored to promote optimal recovery, restore function, and enhance quality of life for individuals undergoing joint replacement surgery. Here’s how we approach joint replacement rehabilitation:
Preoperative Education
We provide comprehensive education and preparation for individuals undergoing joint replacement surgery, including information on what to expect before, during, and after the procedure. Preoperative exercises may also be prescribed to optimize strength, flexibility, and joint function prior to surgery.
Postoperative Care
Following joint replacement surgery, our team of rehabilitation professionals provides attentive postoperative care to manage pain, swelling, and inflammation, while promoting early mobilization and safe movement of the joint. We closely monitor surgical incisions, wound healing, and surgical precautions to minimize complications and facilitate optimal recovery.
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapists design personalized exercise programs to improve joint mobility, strength, flexibility, and range of motion following joint replacement surgery. Through targeted exercises, manual therapy techniques, and functional activities, we help individuals regain functional independence and confidence in their new joint.
Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapists focus on restoring independence in activities of daily living, such as dressing, grooming, bathing, and household tasks, following joint replacement surgery. We provide adaptive techniques, assistive devices, and ergonomic modifications to optimize function and safety in daily activities.
Gait Training and Mobility
We offer gait training and mobility exercises to improve walking ability, balance, and coordination after joint replacement surgery. Through gradual progression of weight-bearing activities, we help individuals regain mobility and confidence in walking and navigating their environment.
Pain Management
Our team provides interventions to manage pain and discomfort associated with joint replacement surgery, including medications, modalities such as heat therapy and cold therapy, and manual techniques to alleviate pain and promote relaxation.
Assistive Devices and Mobility Aids
We offer recommendations and training in the use of assistive devices and mobility aids, such as walkers, canes, and crutches, to support weight-bearing and facilitate safe movement during the recovery period.
Home Exercise Program
We prescribe personalized home exercise programs to supplement in-clinic therapy and promote continued progress and independence in recovery. These exercises are designed to maintain joint mobility, strength, and function between therapy sessions.
Education and Self-Management
We provide education and support to individuals undergoing joint replacement surgery and their families, empowering them to actively participate in their recovery process and prevent complications. We offer guidance on proper joint protection techniques, activity modification, and lifestyle adjustments to optimize long-term outcomes and joint health.
At HEJJE, we are committed to providing comprehensive, multidisciplinary joint replacement rehabilitation services that address the physical, functional, and psychosocial needs of individuals undergoing joint replacement surgery. Our team works collaboratively to optimize recovery, minimize complications, and promote a successful return to daily activities and quality of life.
