Pre/Post Surgical Treatments

Pre & Post-Surgical Physical Therapy
That Gets You Back to Life Faster

Whether you’re gearing up for surgery or bouncing back afterward, we’ve got your recovery covered. At Ortho Advantage, we don’t just help you heal— we help you thrive. Our one-on-one, evidence-based physical therapy sessions are designed to speed up your recovery, reduce pain and swelling, and get you back to doing the things you love—whether that’s chasing your kids, crushing your workouts, or simply walking without pain.

We treat a wide range of pre- and post-operative conditions, from joint replacements and ACL repairs to rotator cuff surgeries, spinal procedures, and more. Our expert therapists use hands-on techniques, targeted exercises, and advanced modalities like electrical stimulation and ultrasound to help you rebuild strength, restore mobility, and feel like yourself again. Some of the post-operative procedures we treat include:

post surgery treatment

Knee, hip and shoulder joint replacements
Reconstruction of any one or more of the four major knee ligaments: anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), medial collateral ligament (MCL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), and lateral collateral ligament (LCL)
Arthroscopic knee surgeries (such as meniscectomies, meniscal repairs)
Ligament and tendon repair, including Achilles tendon repairs
Arthroscopic hip surgeries (such as labral repairs)
Nerve releases (such as cubital tunnel, radial tunnel, carpal tunnel, tarsal tunnel)
Neck and back surgery (such as fusions, laminectomy, decompression and discectomy)
Nerve compression release
Bone or joint fusion (arthrodesis)
Tendon transfers
Surgical fixation of fractures, including open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), a two-part surgery used to fix broken bones where the broken bone is reduced (put back into place) and an internal fixation device is placed on the bone (e.g., screws, plates, rods or pins) to hold the bone together
Shoulder post-surgical recovery for rotator cuff tears, labral tears, superior labrum anterior and posterior (SLAP) tear or lesion, arthroscopy and more

Surgery may be part of your journey—but recovery is where the magic happens. Let’s get you moving, stronger, and back to your life. Ready to take the first step? Let’s go! Give us a call to get started.

“I was looking for a non-hospital based physical therapy when I discovered Ortho Advantage. Andrea was kind and listened to me. She educated me about factors that influenced my issue and made a plan. I have definitely improved and with that information, I can only get better! Highly recommend Andrea! Hey to Zack too!”

“I was just at their newly opened practice in Eaton! I’m so thankful that I no longer have to drive to Dayton, or Cincinnati for my physical therapy. I have been diagnosed with cervical spine disease, and I am already noticing a lot of great benefits!
The entire staff is absolutely amazing 👏 and they have shown me the exact exercises to strengthen my cervical spine. I am extremely happy they are here and helping me heal!
Blessings to this amazing team!!!”

“The staff at OrthoAdvantage are all exceptionally nice. Stacey was really knowledgeable and helped me improve the overall strength in my hips and lower back. I highly recommend if you need physical therapy.”

-Stephanie Phillippi

“I was recommended by 3 friends to go to Ortho Advantage. They told me how great they were and that they helped them get their strength back after surgery. I thought I don’t need PT, I can do it on my own! I am not sure what I was thinking because I was not getting my strength back by myself. I called Ortho Advantage made my appointments and I am getting strength in my leg back. I would highly recommend Ortho Advantage. They are extremely good at what they do and are such a nice group of people.”

– Joe Sakar

“After a full knee replacement and a manipulation under anesthesia, I can’t say enough about the team at Ortho Advantage. They are professional, caring, and empathetic. I’m so glad I found them. I need to drive a little further to get to them but it’s worth it. 100% would recommend for therapy.”

– Karen Lombard

“After a full knee replacement I decided to try Ortho Advantage Physical Therapy and I’m so glad I did. The staff is very friendly answering all my questions and scheduling my appointments. Olivia Hinkel is an amazing therapist who is very encouraging, knowledgeable and professional.”

– Bob Ptacek

“My son, Will, went to PT for six months after his ACL surgery. We were impressed with their professional knowledge and comforted by the atmosphere of the office. He gained confidence working with Olivia H and Vince. However, the entire office was friendly and caring. Scheduling was easy and they were extremely flexible. I think he’ll actually miss going to therapy because they made it so enjoyable. We will highly recommend Ortho Advantage!”

– Jen Rosso

The office staff is very friendly and helpful and the physical therapists are super knowledgeable and well trained, and well educated, and super helpful. I can’t say enough good things about this place and I’ve been around enough to know.”

“Ortho Advantage PT was recommended to me by a friend to help me recover from an Achilles injury. I met with Andrea once a week for about 6 weeks. She used different techniques to work on my heel during each session. She gave me exercises to do at home. I am very pleased by my recovery, Andrea helped me understand my injury better and gave me tips and recommendations so that I could get back to safely playing tennis. Thank you!”
