How our total joint replacement program works.

Your recovery from joint replacement surgery should start before the operation even takes place. Having a joint replacement is an important decision and can dramatically decrease joint pain and improve your quality of life. However, there are a lot of uncertainties when going into surgery – largely about what happens immediately after your surgery takes place.

Pre-operative physical therapy allows you to meet your rehabilitation team and learn the essentials to ensure a great recovery after your surgery. Research has shown that attending as little as one pre-operative physical therapy session can help reduce the amount of post-surgical care and lead to faster and more efficient recoveries.

Here are a few benefits of our Total Joint Replacement program:

  • Meet your physical therapy team and tour the facility
  • Learn important home exercises to get a head-start on your recovery
  • Learn and practice using a walker and cane, if necessary (it’s easier to learn before than it is after surgery)
  • Assess and identify any balance impairments Improve balance to enhance safety and avoid hospital readmission
  • Ready yourself to go home from the hospital rather than to a separate facility
  • Get your questions answered about post-operative rehabilitation
  • Plan your post-operative goals with your physical therapist Faster, more efficient rehabilitation

Kelly is my therapist, professional & easy to work with. Facility is very clean & cheery, lots of windows.Highly recommend:)Response from the ownerThank you for your kind words; we appreciate your feedback! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, King of Prussia ★★★★★ I highly recommend Maximum Performance Physical Therapy. I was so impressed with the care that I received from the minute I walked in the door. From the office to the physical therapy, everyone I encountered was knowledgeable, professional and, most importantly, a pleasure to deal with. If you are in need of a physical therapist, this is the place to go without a doubt.Response from the ownerMari- THank you for the very nice review!! We are happy that you had such a good experience here and we appreciate your recommendation. If you need anything in the future, please let us know! ★★★★★ I cannot speak of Park Sports PT highly enough.I started PT following surgery for a torn MPFL in my left knee (hurts, don’t do it), in October 2021, with the goal of getting back to playing soccer once I’d completed my recovery. It required around four months of therapy, and these guys were absolutely fantastic.They were knowledgable about the injury and did a really good job of tracking my progress. Every time I came in, the PT/assistant knew exactly what exercises I need to do, with the exact weight and everything. They ensured that my form was solid, and did their bit to make exercises fun, too. I worked mostly with Ellis and Vic, who were both excellent. From hanging around the clinic, and seeing different patients recovery smoothly from different injuries, I got the sense that everyone else was just as capable.Most of all, though, I found myself having a good time whenever I was there. All of them, from the front desk to the full time docs, are fun, engaging and warm people. My four months flew by, and I’m back to playing soccer at full capacity now!Response from the ownerThank you for taking the time to share this review, it means so much! – The team at Ivy Rehab, Brooklyn – Williamsburg ★★★★★ I have had a great experience working with Matthew Macina at the Clinton Hill location. I came for recurrent back issues, and my back has been much better since working with him. He is very thoughtful and thorough (and plus one for great taste in music!), and the whole atmosphere at the clinic is very warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!Response from the ownerWe value your feedback, thank you for your kind words! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Brooklyn – Fort Greene ★★★★★ My entire PT experience was awesome and extremely valuable. I learned various exercises to help me recover from and prevent flares. Kelley is professional and she was wonderful to work with-Tonya OniyamaResponse from the ownerThank you for the great review, we really appreciate it! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, King of Prussia ★★★★★ Amazing facility with amazing staff. Nothing like taking your child to a place where they go out of their way to make your family feel at home and help your family grow. Thank you ABC!!Response from the ownerThank you so much for your positive feedback, it means the world to us! – The team at ABC Pediatric Therapy, West Chester Township ★★★★★ After my shoulder surgery, when I had to pick a place to go for my PT, I wasn’t sure where to go. I really was only aware of the chain places, like ATI and Athletico. But I couldn’t drive for about a month so I chose PTSIR in Orland Park because I thought, if for some reason my wife was not available to drive me, it’s only about a 2 mile walk. I could do that.Sometimes you’re smart and sometimes you’re just lucky. Here I was lucky. This place, and these people, are outstanding. Personable, professional, & proficient in the science/art of PT. People had told me: “keep up with your therapy. You’re gonna hate it but you gotta keep going.” I got news for you. I didn’t hate it. I actually enjoyed it.Why?1. It’s working. I have about 75% mobility & strength back in my shoulder.2. These people, Melanie & Linda, they are so engaged in your situation and your progress and so friendly that we actually have conversations and laugh. It’s hard sometimes to show your vulnerabilities (even tho it’s a result of surgery) to strangers. They made it easy.I went to another place about 18 months ago, before surgery was decided. And they were good…friendly, seemed competent. But not nearly as engaged or invested in how I was progressing. Again, they were fine. But on a scale of 1 to Mel, they were like a 2.So thank you Linda for being so friendly and open and helpful. And thank you Mel. You have been simply wonderful. ★★★★★ I am so grateful for ABC’s billing department. First if all, the front desk was proactive and encouraged us to check out different grants to help us pay for our upcoming bills. They saw that we attend 3 therapy sessions each week and have a high insurance deductible, therefore knew the bills would add up quickly. With the help of Nikki, ABC’s support specialist, we were able to apply and qualify for a grant to receive help for our bills! Overall, the billing department’s guidance and support has allowed my daughter to continue to receive services so that nothing stops her from reaching her goals!Response from the ownerThank you Stephanie! We are so pleased to be able to help with any financial burdens! We love to hear your daughter is making progress! ★★★★★ I can’t thank Dan enough for helping me regain my mobility and get back to walking without pain! His expertise, care, and personalized approach made all the difference in my recovery. From the very first session, he listened to my concerns and tailored a plan that worked perfectly for me. Each visit, I left feeling stronger and more confident. Dan’s professionalism and dedication to his patients are unmatched, and I highly recommend him to anyone in need of physical therapy. Thanks to him, I’m feeling great and pain-free againResponse from the ownerThat’s wonderful to hear – thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Blue Bell – South ★★★★★ Everyone there is wonderful, helpful, very professional and it makes it very easy to want to come back to continue your therapy for no matter what it is for. My wrist therapist Tim has been nothing but awesome and works with you on what your tolerance and pain level is. I’m glad I found them on the internet and made that commitment to go to them. ★★★★★ I recently attended a seminar on “active listening”… Tyler could have taught the courseHis energy is only exceeded by his knowledge and interest in getting you fixed!Response from the ownerThank you for sharing this with us! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Conshohocken ★★★★★ I wanted to share my experience to hopefully allow future customers to hear this before choosing the people that will care for them through recovery. I have worked with multiple team members at this location and during the last few weeks have been able to see a change in not only my physical self, but my mood in myself in general. Emily, Zach & Kyle so far have made every second of my recovery energetic and truthful. They pushed me when they seen the potential, yet let me relax when they seen the discomfort. When they knew I needed to go farther, they supported me through every step. I wasn’t anywhere near a painful recovery as others were. But even seeing their patience and kindness with clients who were in much harder positions than me made me trust them more. They care here, and that’s why I leave everytime with a smile.Response from the ownerThat’s wonderful to hear – thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us! – The team at Ivy Rehab, Comstock Park! ★★★★★ Chris is a wonderful therapist. He took the time to put together a program that was specifically designed to me so I was able to return to a better and stronger version of myself. He is extremely knowledgeable and I would recommend Chris to anyone who needs physical therapy. I felt confident in his care and will return to him in the future. Thank you, Chris!Response from the ownerThat’s wonderful to hear – thank you so much for sharing your feedback with us! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Caledonia ★★★★★ This was a wonderful, hard working experience. The staff was experienced, polite, patient and great professionals.Physical therapy is a 50/50 partnership between you and the therapist. An experience that begins and continous after the last session. Thank you Ivy Rehab!!!Response from the ownerThank you for taking the time to share this review, it means so much! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Virginia Beach – Kempsville ★★★★★ After ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair surgery, I limped into Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy and have been working with Matthew Macina ever since. From the minute Zach at the front desk greeted me, I felt taken care of and at ease. Over the past several months, Matt has designed an evolving PT protocol that has helped me progress and challenges me to meet my goals, and I’m thrilled to be resuming my more active lifestyle. Starting PT after surgery can feel daunting, but Matt and Zach have made every visit upbeat, pleasant, and productive. They’ve even called my surgeon and insurance company to make managing the required paperwork easier on me. I’m so happy to have found IRPT, and will continue to work with them as I gain strength and full mobility. Highly recommend!Response from the ownerThank you for taking the time to share this review, it means so much! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Brooklyn – Fort Greene ★★★★★ I can’t say enough good things about Ivy Rehab! Ross expertly crafted a rehabilitation program that was customized to my specific needs and goals. Additionally, the team had flexible scheduling options and made each session fun!Response from the ownerThank you so much for your positive feedback, it means the world to us! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Philadelphia – Center City ★★★★★ My 7 year old just completed his OT with Macy. I didn’t have much expectations starting his therapy but after just a few short months, he has far excelled in multiple areas. His therapist was incredibly helpful and supportive. We are sad but happy to leave.Response from the ownerThank you for your kind words; we appreciate your feedback! – The team at Ivy Rehab for Kids, Norfolk – Granby ★★★★★ I would like to recommend this place to anyone seeking Physical Therapy.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, New Hyde Park ★★★★★ I had no idea how lucky I was when my doctor recommended Ivy Rehabilitation on Rte 59 in Naperville for my physical therapy. The office is new and well equipped. It’s greatest asset is the staff. Professional, knowledgeable and courteous is just the beginning. Communication is friendly and focused primarily on patient improvement. They have created a cohesive and efficient family that grows with each new patient.Response from the ownerThank you for sharing this with us! – The team at Ivy Rehab Physical Therapy, Naperville ★★★★★ Always treated with kindness!
