What Is Tendon Repair Rehabilitation?
Tendon repair rehabilitation is a personalized physical therapy program designed to support recovery after surgery to
repair a damaged or torn tendon. Rehabilitation helps patients gradually restore movement, strength, coordination,
and functional use while respecting the healing process and precautions provided by the surgical team.
A structured tendon repair physical therapy program is tailored to the type and location of the tendon repair, surgical
protocol, healing stage, current abilities, and individual recovery goals. Treatment progresses carefully from protected
movement toward strengthening and functional activity when appropriate.
A personalized rehabilitation program may help patients:
- Restore mobility and flexibility
- Manage post-surgical stiffness and movement limitations
- Gradually rebuild tendon and supporting muscle strength
- Improve coordination and movement control
