Why Starting Physical Therapy Before Surgery Makes a Difference

Most patients focus on recovery after surgery, but what you do before your procedure matters just as much. Research consistently shows that patients who complete pre-surgical physical therapy (often called “prehab”) experience shorter hospital stays, faster post-operative recovery, and better long-term outcomes. Building strength, improving range of motion, and establishing healthy movement habits before your surgery gives your body the best possible foundation for healing afterward.
