Total Joint Replacement
WHAT IS TOTAL JOINT REPLACEMENT PHYSICAL THERAPY?
Any total joint replacement of the knee, hip, or shoulder needs to be paired with a carefully curated physical therapy program. Our HeathQuest Physical Therapy clinics provide joint replacement physical therapy rehabilitation to those whose mobility is limited due to a replacement procedure, or even those who experience impairing joint pain from arthritis or strain from sources other than surgery.
Our highly trained therapists can help restore strength, mobility, flexibility, endurance, range of motion, and the ability to perform prior activities. Our patients can also expect to receive useful education on pain and strain avoidance with basic daily functions like walking, climbing stairs, getting in and out of a chair or car, tying shoes, proper lifting technique and other daily activities. If your joints are a constant source of pain, HealthQuest Physical Therapy can help provide you with relief.
