With Pre-Surgical and Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Surgeons routinely refer post-surgical patients to our physical therapists to help them recover strength, function and mobility.
Our therapists provide one-on-one, evidence-based physical therapy treatment sessions to help facilitate your recovery and return to activities of daily living (ADLs), work, recreational activities and even competitive sports.
The rehabilitative process depends on the injury and type of surgery. We help patients recover and rehabilitate from a variety of orthopedic post-operative procedures, including:
- 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
What Is the First Step?
Start By Scheduling an Evaluation Appointment.
Don't Wait - Get Started Right Now!
Clinical research shows that the sooner you get started with active rehabilitation, the less likely you will need unnecessary tests, medications, or surgery.
At your evaluation appointment, you will meet with a physical therapist who will perform a thorough evaluation that includes:
- A review of your health history and your specific symptoms.
- A thorough examination that includes assessing the quality and quantity of your movements, and any factors that might put you at risk for delayed recovery or might indicate a serious health problem.
- Assessment of how you use your body at work, at home, during sports, and at leisure.
- Determination of the diagnosis and impairments that are causing your pain and establishment of a treatment plan of care.

What Our Clients Say
I have been treated at SE Physical Therapy for 3 different joint problems and would easily return to them for the next issue. Each therapist has shown a great competence in treating my issues and helping me to work towards my goals . We have worked on strengthening, balance, pain control and endurance. I enjoy their creativity in the exercises we do and their interest in my condition and treatment. I also enjoy seeing the interns there as part of their education and see how the therapists include them in the daily routine. Thanks to all the staff for what you do. It’s time for SE PT to move to a larger building/space as you seem to be a popular hang out, meaning the business is treating a lot of clients. Even before COVID caused people to practice social distancing, it was crowded. Hopefully this is in the future strategic planning.
This was my second time going to SEPT in Fairview, once for my “tennis elbow” and this last time for rotator cuff surgery. All staff there are amazing, they pushed me hard enough to get to where I’m able to use my shoulder again and my surgeon was very pleased with the results. I would highly recommend this facility to everyone and will go there again if I need to.
