Physical Therapy
The final goal of any surgical procedure is total recovery including restored mobility, pain reduction, and increased fitness level.
The physical therapy group at Midwest Surgical Hospital enables our patients to gain the functional independence of a normal and healthy lifestyle as quickly as possible after surgery.
A specific program is designed by licensed physical therapists based on patient history, a physical examination, and any relevant laboratory results or imaging studies.
Various techniques are available to ensure the patient’s condition is properly addressed, from simple exercise, massage or hydrotherapy to such modern advances as electro-stimulation, ultrasound, or cold lasers.
A successful physical therapy curriculum provides patients with everyday tools to improve gross and fine motor skills, balance and coordination, strength and endurance as well as cognitive and sensory processing.
