Joint replacement/arthroplasty surgery is a procedure in which the arthritic tissue is replaced with a prosthesis. Replacing a joint can reduce pain and help you move and feel better. Hips, knees and shoulders are replaced most often. Other joints that can be replaced include the ankles, elbows fingers and toes.
If you get a joint replacement you might think your mobility woes will be history. The reality is your new joint needs continued attention and care to function normally. Our extensive knowledge and experience with both pre-surgical and post-surgical joint replacement/arthroplasty will help you achieve your goals.
Physical therapy is a key part of a successful joint replacement surgery – no matter what your age and mobility status.
