What is orthopedic rehabilitation?

Orthopedic rehabilitation helps strengthen your musculoskeletal system, improve movement and relieve pain.

Who can benefit and how?

Anyone who has had surgery, an injury, or is suffering from arthritis, bursitis or tendonitis can benefit from orthopedic rehabilitation. We also provide conditioning for people getting ready for surgery to help improve recovery times.

Orthopedic rehab can help you to build strength, improve your range of motion and relieve pain. It can return you to your previous level of function, making physical activities - from getting out of bed to playing sports - easier to do.

Why choose Sentara?

Our certified physical and occupational therapists have extra training and experience in creating orthopedic care plans. We work with your orthopedic surgeon and other health professionals to ensure you get back to your daily activities as quickly as possible.

After surgery, you meet with our physical and occupational therapy specialists to discuss your goals and needs. Our experts work as a team to manage pain and help you heal.
