    Orthopedic & Bone Rehabilitation

    Bone, joint, and soft-tissue rehabilitation following fractures, dislocations, or orthopedic procedures.

    Introduction

    Orthopedic rehabilitation focuses on the musculoskeletal system. Whether you are recovering from a broken bone, a severe dislocation, or managing a chronic orthopedic condition, we provide the care you need.

    Orthopedic Rehabilitation is one of our specialized programs under our Rehabilitation services.

    Common Conditions Addressed

    • Bone fractures (simple or complex)
    • Joint dislocations
    • Severe osteoarthritis requiring management
    • Tendon ruptures (e.g., Achilles)
    • Crush injuries

    Symptoms & Challenges

    • Immobilization stiffness (e.g., after cast removal)
    • Severe muscle wasting (atrophy)
    • Joint instability
    • Chronic aching or sharp pain with movement
    • Altered walking patterns (limping)

    How Rehabilitation Helps

    We focus on safely remobilizing joints that have been immobilized, rebuilding wasted muscle, and restoring normal biomechanics to prevent long-term disability.

    Why Choose Us

    We understand the delicate balance between protecting healing bones/tissues and pushing the body to recover its strength, ensuring safe and optimal results.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    My arm is very stiff after having a cast removed. Is this normal?

    Yes, this is completely normal. Joints become stiff when immobilized. Physiotherapy will help stretch the joint capsule and restore normal movement.

    How long does it take to rebuild muscle after a fracture?

    It typically takes several months of consistent strength training to rebuild muscle mass that was lost during immobilization.
