Post-Surgery Rehabilitation
Clinical Overview
JSK Post-Surgery Wing provides structured orthopedic rehabilitation following joint replacements, fracture fixations, and ligament reconstructions. We prevent joint stiffness, rebuild wasted muscles, and retrain walking gait to help patients return to independent living.
Challenges We Resolve
Post-Surgical Joint Stiffness
Development of thick scar tissue and joint capsule tightness due to post-operative immobilization, restricting bending.
Rapid Muscle Wasting (Atrophy)
Severe thinning and weakness in the muscles of the operated leg or arm, causing extreme instability.
Gait Compensations & Limping
Limping and placing unequal weight on the legs, leading to secondary back pain and strain on the healthy leg.
JSK's Treatment Methodology
Scar Tissue Mobilization
Performing manual scar massage to prevent adhesions and ensure skin and underlying fascia slide smoothly during movement.
Guided Range of Motion Expansion
Utilizing gentle passive and active-assisted bending to safely recover joint flexion and extension angles step-by-step.
Early Isometric Activation
Activating thigh or shoulder muscles using static contractions to build strength without stress on healing bones or stitches.
Progressive Weight-Bearing & Gait
Retraining gait phases using parallel bars to safely move from walker, to crutches, and finally independent walking.
