Orthopaedic Rehabilitation
What is orthopaedic rehabilitation?
Orthopaedic rehabilitation at Bryn Mawr Rehab is a comprehensive program designed to assist individuals in regaining strength, mobility and endurance following a variety of orthopaedic conditions. This program leverages a blend of traditional and innovative therapies to meet the unique needs of each patient.
Our approach prioritizes personalized exercises and treatments to improve mobility and reduce pain caused by:
- Joint replacements
- Fractures
- Sprains, strains
- Bursitis
- Sports injuries
Individuals with sports injuries, arthritis, osteoporosis and anyone facing surgery for joint replacements or repairing severe fractures can benefit from orthopaedic rehab. Early intervention through rehabilitation can make a critical difference in the speed and extent of recovery.
Inpatient vs. outpatient orthopaedic rehab
Patients admitted to Bryn Mawr Rehab Hospital undergo three hours of intensive therapy at least five days a week. Each patient benefits from a customized treatment regimen which may include:
- Higher intensity physical and occupational therapy
- Psychology
- Psychology
- Recreational therapy
On the inpatient side, a typical orthopaedic rehab session starts with pain reduction before increasing to range of motion, strength, mobility, coordination and endurance. In addition to traditional physical therapy and occupational therapy, our orthopaedic rehab team offers creative treatment options like horticulture therapy and pet therapy to help orthopaedic rehab patients make progress toward their therapy goals.
People who see us for inpatient care are encouraged to continue the healing process through our comprehensive outpatient programs. Orthopaedic rehabilitation is customized to the goals and interests that best motivate our patients. Orthopaedic rehab services may include:
- Adapted driving program
- Aquatic therapy
- Assistive technology services
- Neuropsychological evaluations
