PHYSICAL THERAPY AND REHABILITATION

Physical therapy and rehabilitation, and generally taking care of yourself are vital parts to both injury prevention and recovery. Rehabilitation in particular is a critical component of following a physician’s plan of care after an injury or surgical operation.

Adhering to the guidelines for physical therapy and rehabilitation processes is important for reducing healing time and returning to your regular lifestyle. In addition, diligent rehabilitation and plenty of rest help reduce potential risks of re-injury.
