What Is Post-Surgical Intervention?

Physical therapy plays an essential role in the recovery process, whether it's for knee surgery, shoulder surgery, or another procedure.

How Does Post-Surgical Intervention Work?
Post-surgical intervention begins with a customized rehabilitation plan that often starts with gentle exercises and stretches to help restore range of motion. As healing progresses, the exercises become more challenging, focusing on building strength and flexibility. At UMG Physical Therapy, your physical therapist will guide you through each step of your recovery, adjusting the treatment as needed to match your progress. Whether recovering from knee surgery, shoulder surgery, or another procedure, this approach is designed to help you move toward recovery in a structured manner.
What to Expect After Post-Surgical Intervention
After finishing post-surgical therapy, most people notice better mobility, less pain, and more confidence doing everyday tasks. You may still need to keep up with certain exercises at home, especially if you're working toward long-term goals like returning to work, sports, or other physical activities. Some people continue with occasional check-ins or maintenance therapy, while others transition to exercising on their own. Our goal is to help you feel steady, strong, and ready to move forward without needing regular appointments.
What Are the Benefits of Post-Surgical Intervention?
Post-surgical physical therapy at UMG Physical Therapy offers numerous benefits that can aid in a smoother and more effective recovery. Some of these benefits include:
- Pain reduction
- Improved flexibility
- Faster recovery
- Complication prevention
- Restored strength
- Focused care for specific surgeries
UMG Physical Therapy Reviews
Very relaxing, and family orientated clinic. Good group of guys and got my hip moving and feeling better. Would recommend these guys!
Great atmosphere with educated and professional staff members. They have helped me tremendously with an Achilles tendinitis concern.The Patient Portal is a great tool to use when doing at home exercises (timer included).
I came in for upper back pain that I had been dealing with for a couple of months. Jeffery and Kevin were amazing from day one—knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely caring. My therapist, Jeff, created a personalized treatment plan that focused on posture correction, strengthening, and mobility. Within just a few sessions, my pain was gone and I felt noticeably stronger. They also provided an excellent home exercise program that I can continue using on my own. I highly recommend this clinic—they truly rock!
This is one of the best physical therapy facility I’ve ever been in. Very professional and caring
On Tuesday, I woke up with a crick in my neck after sleeping wrong on it and through the day it got progressively worse - I had to keep my neck tilted to the right (ear to shoulder) because it was 10/10 pain tilting it to the left or holding it straight. Was thinking Wednesday it was going to get better but it actually got even worse. Just sitting in a car trying to stabilize my neck with turns and bumps in the road was causing sharp jabs of pain in my neck.Went to see Jeffery and Kevin on Thursday and they did a quick diagnosis and began massaging my neck, shoulders and back which provided immediate relief to the pain. Jeffery has miracle hands. They had me do some compound stretches involving multiple muscle groups and strengthening exercises to give me ways to strengthen my back, shoulders, and neck for preventive exercises. For each exercise and stretch, they explained what was being accomplished and why. That really helped me understand how I got into the neck pain and how to prevent it in the future.Lastly, the billing process/dealing with insurance was seamless with them and went without a hitch - that has always been a sore spot for me in dealing with medical stuff - not so with UMG!Jeffery and Kevin provided professional and personalized care that you won't get at the chain physical therapy spots trying to get you in-and-out. I highly recommend seeing them for any acute pain or longstanding issues! I've had back and shoulder issues in the past and have also started to see them to get those addressed so I don't tweak my back in the future!

Am I A Candidate for Post-Surgical Intervention?
If you're recovering from surgery and having trouble moving, lifting, or doing the things you normally would, post-surgical therapy may be right for you. At UMG Physical Therapy, we regularly work with people who have had joint replacements, tendon repairs, back surgery, or other procedures that affect how their body moves. If your surgeon has cleared you for rehab, we can help you take the next steps in your recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions
How soon after surgery should I start rehabbing?
That depends on the type of surgery you've had, but in many cases, therapy can begin just a few days after your procedure — once your surgeon says it's safe. Starting early can help prevent stiffness and support a smoother recovery.
How long will I need physical therapy?
Everyone heals at a different pace, so the length of therapy varies. Some people feel better in just a few weeks, while others need a few months to rebuild strength and mobility. We'll track your progress and adjust the plan as your body heals.
How often should I schedule physical therapy appointments?
Most people start with 2 – 3 sessions per week, especially in the early stages of recovery. As you improve, your visits may become less frequent. We'll help you figure out a schedule that matches your goals and healing timeline.
