Post-Operative Recovery

Are you in the recovery phase of your operative experience? Are you having a lot of swelling and pain? Are you constipated from the pain meds? Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT), the all-natural alternative, may be the answer for you.

Studies have shown:

• Postoperative OMT is associated with less time in the hospital and accelerated recovery.

The post-operative recovery period refers to the phase between the end of the surgical procedure and returning to your normal activities. During this period, tissues heal from the surgical trauma and in most cases; normal physical strength is regained gradually.

Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) is a natural method of treatment, which can be employed along with standard care to accelerate your surgical recovery.

The goals of OMT for post-operative recovery are:

• Decrease congestion and swelling by promoting venous and lymphatic drainage
• Balance the autonomic nervous system
• Maximize natural immunity and medication delivery to the tissues
• Decrease pain
