Recovering from surgery doesn’t end when you leave the operating room. In fact, that’s when the real work begins. Whether you've had orthopedic surgery, a joint replacement, or another major procedure, the path to full recovery often depends on a structured, personalized physical rehabilitation program.
At Flexx Chiropractic, we understand that no two recoveries are the same. That’s why our post-surgical rehab services are designed to support your healing journey in a way that’s tailored to your body, your surgery, and your lifestyle. If you're wondering how physical rehabilitation can accelerate healing and reduce complications, this guide is for you.
After surgery, your body goes into repair mode. But without guided movement and targeted therapy, healing can be slower, less complete, and sometimes painful. Here’s how physical rehabilitation helps:
Virtually any surgery involving joints, muscles, bones, or soft tissue can benefit from a customized rehab program. This includes:
Your first visit is all about understanding you. After a comprehensive evaluation, we’ll assess:
From there, we’ll design a personalized treatment plan that may include:
At Flexx Chiropractic, we offer more than just exercises. We offer a full-body, whole-health recovery experience.
Every session is guided by a licensed provider who monitors your progress, adjusts your plan, and makes sure you’re healing optimally.
We combine chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, physical rehab, and functional training under one roof. That means a more comprehensive recovery process.
We use state-of-the-art tools like laser therapy, spinal decompression, and muscle activation techniques to enhance healing.
You won’t just do your exercises—you’ll understand why they matter. Our goal is to empower you to take control of your recovery.
Our protocols are designed to reduce re-injury risk and help you regain mobility and confidence faster.
Every patient heals at a different pace, depending on factors like age, overall health, type of surgery, and how early therapy begins. While some people feel stronger within a few weeks, others may need several months of rehab to fully recover.
The good news? With consistent care and a customized plan, many Flexx Chiropractic patients report noticeable improvements in as little as 2–4 weeks—from reduced pain to increased mobility and strength.
When should I start physical rehab after surgery?
It depends on the surgery, but early intervention (often within days or weeks post-op) typically leads to better outcomes. Always follow your surgeon’s clearance.
Can rehab make my pain worse?
A little soreness is normal, but the goal of rehab is to reduce pain over time—not increase it. We tailor intensity to your comfort and healing level.
Do I need a referral from my surgeon?
Not always. We’re happy to coordinate with your surgical team, but many patients come directly to us to start post-op care.
Is chiropractic care safe after surgery?
Absolutely, when done appropriately. We evaluate your surgical history and only use techniques that support healing without risking complications.
What happens if I skip post-surgical rehab?
You may experience slower healing, stiffness, pain, limited mobility, or even re-injury. Rehab helps ensure you recover the right way, not just the fast way.
At Flexx Chiropractic, we believe that post-surgical care isn’t just about rehabilitation, it’s about reclaiming your strength, confidence, and quality of life. Whether you're an athlete returning to sport or simply want to get back to your daily routine without discomfort, our expert team is here to guide every step of your recovery.
