Surgery is often an unavoidable step in the treatment of many conditions and injuries. However, in order to make this process as effective as possible, proper physiotherapy both before and after surgery is extremely important. Studies show that properly administered preoperative and postoperative physiotherapy can significantly speed up the return to full function, while reducing the risk of complications.
Preoperative physiotherapy: preparing the body for surgery.
Preoperative physiotherapy aims to prepare the patient for the upcoming surgical procedure. Regular physiotherapy sessions before surgery can bring many benefits:
- Preparing muscles and joints: Strengthening and stretching exercises help increase the strength and flexibility of muscles and joints, which is crucial for later rehabilitation.
- Improving range of motion: Working on mobility before surgery can significantly reduce the risk of complications and facilitate the rehabilitation process.
- Better physical condition: Increasing the patient's overall physical fitness positively influences the course of surgery and speeds up recovery.
Postoperative physiotherapy: faster recovery.
After surgery, physiotherapy is an indispensable part of the recovery process. It deals with both the reduction of pain and the improvement of the patient's motor functions.
- Reduction of pain and swelling: The use of appropriate therapeutic techniques helps reduce pain and swelling, which significantly improves patient comfort.
- Accelerate wound healing: Physiotherapy stimulates the body's regenerative processes, which speeds up the healing of surgical wounds.
- Improving mobility and strength: Exercises and therapeutic techniques help restore muscle strength and improve range of motion in the operated areas.
LightForce - Laser therapy immediately after surgery.
Advanced LightForce laser therapy, can be used as early as the day after surgery. This therapy has a number of benefits:
- Pain reduction: LightForce effectively reduces pain, allowing patients to return to daily activities faster.
- Reduction of swelling: Laser therapy aids in faster resolution of post-operative swelling, which speeds up the recovery process.
- Accelerate tissue regeneration: LightForce Stimulates regenerative processes at the cellular level, which accelerates tissue healing.
- Improved circulation: Stimulation of microcirculation by laser therapy promotes better oxygenation of tissues, which is crucial to the healing process.
