I consider the integration of the mind- body connection, all aspects of lifestyle, my collaboration with each individual patient, their medical team and alternative practitioners to support the healing process.
How long after surgery can I start physical therapy?
Patients must be cleared by their surgeons in order to begin physical therapy. It is usually when their drains are removed, about 3-4 weeks post operatively.
Can I come see you years after my surgery if I need some help with pain, tightness or decreased mobility?
It is very common for body signals to appear years after surgery and treatment for various reasons. Healing is not linear. If you feel new pain, tightness or decreased mobility it is helpful to get some support to navigate through and to get to the root cause of your symptoms.
