Physical Therapy Surgery Preparation
Pre-Surgery Assessment
At Active Solutions Therapy, we believe in the power of proactive healthcare. Before undergoing surgery, it's essential to assess your physical condition and address any underlying issues that may affect your recovery. Our experienced therapists conduct thorough pre-surgery assessments to evaluate your range of motion, strength, and functional abilities. Through advanced diagnostic techniques and comprehensive evaluations, we identify areas of concern and develop personalized treatment plans to optimize your surgical outcome.
Our assessments go beyond just physical parameters, and we take the time to understand your unique health history, lifestyle factors, and personal goals to ensure that our therapy program is tailored to your individual needs. By considering the whole person, we can create a comprehensive plan that not only prepares you for surgery but also sets the foundation for a successful recovery.
Customized Therapy Programs
Every individual is unique, and so are their therapy needs. At Active Solutions Therapy, we specialize in designing customized therapy programs tailored to your specific surgery and rehabilitation goals. Whether you're preparing for joint replacement surgery, spine surgery, or any other surgical procedure, our team works closely with you to develop a personalized plan that addresses your unique needs and concerns. From targeted exercises to manual therapy techniques, we employ evidence-based practices to enhance your strength, mobility, and overall function in preparation for surgery.

Pain Management Strategies
Pain management is a crucial aspect of surgery preparation and recovery. We offer comprehensive pain management strategies to help alleviate discomfort and improve your overall quality of life. Through a combination of therapeutic exercises, modalities, and manual techniques, our therapists can effectively manage pain associated with your condition or injury. By addressing pain proactively before surgery, we can help minimize postoperative pain and promote a smoother recovery process, allowing you to return to your daily activities with greater comfort and confidence.
Our pain management strategies extend beyond the therapy room. We provide education on pain management techniques that you can implement at home, empowering you to take an active role in your recovery journey. Whether it's practicing relaxation techniques, utilizing heat or cold therapy, or incorporating ergonomic principles into your daily activities, we equip you with the tools and knowledge needed to manage pain effectively throughout the surgical process and beyond.a
