Joint Replacement Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation after joint replacement (hip, knee, or shoulder) is critical to regain mobility, reduce pain, and restore independence. The goal is to improve range of motion, build strength, and re-establish safe and efficient movement.

Causes:

  • 1. Osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis
  • 2. Traumatic joint damage
  • 3. Failed prior joint treatments

Symptoms:

  • 1. Pre- and post-operative joint pain
  • 2. Stiffness and muscle weakness
  • 3. Difficulty walking, climbing, or performing basic tasks

Treatment and Rehabilitation:

    • 1. Pain Reduction Techniques:
      Includes cold therapy, muscles activation and early mobilization to ease discomfort.
    • 2. Scar Tissue Release:
      Soft tissue mobilization reduces adhesions and improves flexibility around the incision.
    • 3. Improve Range of Motion (ROM) Training:
      Passive and active exercises restore flexibility and joint freedom.
    • 4. Strengthening Exercises:
      Builds stability and endurance in the affected limb to support daily activities.
    • 5. Gait and Balance Training:
      Corrects walking mechanics and reduces fall risk during recovery.
    • 6. Functional Independent Gait Training:
      Tailored drills help patients walk confidently with or without assistive devices.
