COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT: Our experienced physiotherapists conduct a thorough assessment to evaluate the extent of the fracture, the surgical intervention (if any), and the individual’s overall physical condition. This assessment helps us develop a personalized rehabilitation plan tailored to the specific fracture type, location, and individual needs.

PAIN MANAGEMENT: Managing pain is a primary concern during the post-fracture rehabilitation phase. Our physiotherapists employ various techniques and modalities to help individuals effectively manage pain, including manual therapy, electrical modalities, ice or heat therapy, and appropriate pain-relieving exercises. By addressing pain, we create a more comfortable environment for rehabilitation and promote a positive healing response.

RANGE OF MOTION AND JOINT MOBILITY: After a fracture, restoring and maintaining normal range of motion and joint mobility is essential. Our rehabilitation program includes specific exercises and techniques to gradually improve joint flexibility and regain normal movement. These exercises may involve passive range of motion exercises, active-assisted exercises, and active range of motion exercises, focusing on the affected area. By gradually increasing the range of motion, we aim to prevent joint stiffness and improve overall function.

STRENGTHENING AND WEIGHT-BEARING ACTIVITIES: Fractures often result in muscle weakness and reduced weight-bearing ability. Our rehabilitation program incorporates targeted strengthening exercises to rebuild muscle strength and improve weight-bearing capacity. These exercises may involve resistance training, weight-bearing activities, and functional movements tailored to the individual’s specific fracture and rehabilitation goals.

BALANCE AND PROPRIOCEPTION TRAINING: After a fracture, individuals may experience decreased balance and proprioceptive deficits. Our program includes exercises and activities to improve balance, stability, and proprioception. This may involve balance training exercises, coordination drills, and challenging balance surfaces. By enhancing balance and proprioception, we aim to reduce the risk of falls and improve overall functional abilities.

GAIT AND WALKING TRAINING: Regaining normal walking patterns and gait mechanics is a crucial component of post-fracture rehabilitation. Our physiotherapists provide gait training to individuals, focusing on proper alignment, weight distribution, and gait symmetry. We work on correcting any compensatory movements and aim to restore a natural and efficient walking pattern.

FUNCTIONAL REHABILITATION: The ultimate goal of post-fracture rehabilitation is to restore individuals’ ability to perform their daily activities and return to their pre-fracture level of function. Our program includes functional rehabilitation exercises and activities that mimic real-life movements and tasks. This may involve activities specific to the affected area, such as gripping objects, lifting, carrying, or performing functional movements necessary for independent living.

EDUCATION AND HOME EXERCISE PROGRAMS: Education plays a vital role in post-fracture rehabilitation. Our physiotherapists provide individuals with information on precautions, self-care strategies, and home exercise programs to continue their rehabilitation progress outside of therapy sessions. We empower individuals with knowledge and tools for self-management, facilitating a faster and more successful recovery.

PROGRESS MONITORING AND COMMUNICATION: Throughout the post-fracture rehabilitation program, our physiotherapists closely monitor individuals’ progress, assess their functional abilities, and make adjustments to the treatment plan as needed. Regular communication with individuals and their healthcare team ensures a collaborative approach to recovery and optimal outcomes.

SUPPORT AND MOTIVATION: Recovering from a fracture can be challenging both physically and emotionally. Our physiotherapists provide continuous support, encouragement, and motivation to individuals throughout their rehabilitation journey. We understand the importance of a positive and supportive environment in facilitating successful recovery.

The post-fracture rehabilitation program at Proactive health is designed to promote healing, restore function, and enable individuals to regain their independence and quality of life. Our dedicated team of physiotherapists combines expertise, evidence-based techniques, and individualized care to help individuals achieve their rehabilitation goals and return to their normal activities with confidence.
