Joint Replacement in Columbia, MD

Joint replacement is a surgical procedure where damaged joints, such as the knee, hip, or shoulder, are replaced with artificial implants. This surgery is often necessary for individuals suffering from severe arthritis, injury, or other degenerative conditions that affect the joint's functionality. Common procedures include total knee joint replacement, hip joint replacement, and total shoulder joint replacement. After the surgery, patients typically experience reduced pain and improved mobility. Following joint replacement surgery, successful recovery requires careful aftercare. UMG Physical Therapy in Columbia, MD offers physical therapy that plays an important role in the rehabilitation process, helping patients regain strength, flexibility, and proper joint function through personalized exercise plans designed to support the recovery journey.

Physical therapy is essential for patients recovering from joint replacement surgery, helping them regain strength, flexibility, and full use of the replaced joint. The type of therapy depends on the joint that has been replaced. For instance, total knee joint replacement exercises focus on strengthening, balance, and range of motion. Hip joint replacement exercises work to rebuild muscle strength and restore mobility for walking and daily activities. Similarly, shoulder joint replacement therapy emphasizes improving shoulder movement and muscle strength. These therapeutic exercises are developed based on each patient's specific needs, supporting their recovery process.

Treatment at UMG Physical Therapy offers numerous benefits for patients who have undergone joint replacement surgery, including:

  • Reducing pain and swelling
  • Restoring mobility and joint range of motion
  • Preventing stiffness and scar tissue formation
  • Strengthening muscles surrounding the replaced joint
  • Enhancing balance and coordination
  • Improving overall functionality and quality of life

Patients can enjoy a smoother, more successful rehabilitation by focusing on recovery exercises, such as total knee joint replacement exercises or hip joint replacement exercises.

 

A work injury led me to searching for a quality physical therapy location near me. I decided to go to this newly opened PT clinic and had a great experience. Clean/new facility with a friendly staff. I saw Kevin and Jeff throughout my multiple visits and received great care from both. They got me back to normal quicker than expected. I will certainly be back if I have any future PT needs.
