Surgery is often a critical step toward recovery—but what happens before and after the procedure can be just as important. At AVORS Medical Group in Lancaster, CA, Dr. Tony Smith , a Board Certified Doctor of Chiropractic and Physiotherapy Rehabilitation, offers comprehensive Pre & Post Surgical Rehabilitation programs designed to optimize healing, restore function, and get patients back to living life fully. Why Pre & Post Surgical Rehab Matters Surgical procedures—whether orthopedic, spinal, or soft tissue—place significant stress on the body. Without proper preparation and recovery, patients may face: Prolonged healing times Muscle atrophy and joint stiffness Reduced mobility and strength Increased risk of re-injury Dr. Smith emphasizes, “Rehabilitation isn’t just about recovery—it’s about preparing the body to heal better and faster, and ensuring long-term success after surgery.” Pre-Surgical Rehabilitation (Prehab) Before surgery, Dr. Smith works with patients to: Strengthen surrounding muscles to support the surgical site Improve joint mobility and flexibility Educate patients on post-surgical expectations and exercises Reduce inflammation and pain to improve surgical outcomes  This proactive approach can lead to shorter hospital stays, fewer complications, and a faster return to normal activities.
