orthopedic rehab
Skeletal injury therapy
Orthopedic rehab is physical therapy focused on recovering from injuries, surgeries, or conditions affecting bones, joints, muscles, and connective tissues.
Someone might do orthopedic rehab after a knee replacement, rotator cuff surgery, or a sports injury: She's in orthopedic rehab three times a week for her hip.
The goal is restoring strength, mobility, and function.
