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 Our Clients Say
I’ve been to many physical therapy centers in my life, mostly for back and knee problems and fortunately most have been pretty good. But Low Country PT ranks at the very top of the list. All the therapists and staff members know their stuff and all can answer any questions you have. The atmosphere is fun and positive. There’s a reason they’ve won Best of the Beach for 10 years and running. I hear all the physical therapists are very good. I had Melanie and she was excellent! She addressed all my concerns and answered all my questions. I still do all the exercises and stretches she had me do while I’m at the gym and my improvement has been game changing.
At my age, I’ve become a “regular” at Low Country Physical Therapy! It’s either one joint or another. The staff here is very friendly, well organized and knowledgeable. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
