5 Things Everyone Should Know About Joint Replacement Rehabilitation

• Rehab starts early. Physical therapy usually begins within 24 hours after surgery. Early movement helps prevent stiffness, swelling, and blood clots.

• Consistency beats intensity. You don’t need to overdo it—steady, daily progress matters more than pushing too hard too soon.

• Pain management equals progress. Managing pain isn’t just about comfort—it helps you move better and recover faster.

• It’s a full-body effort. Strengthening your core, balance, and opposite leg supports your new joint and prevents future strain.

• Recovery takes time. Most people see significant improvements in 6–12 weeks, but full recovery can take up to a year. Patience pays off.

Joint replacement rehabilitation is a marathon, not a sprint. Stick with your plan, trust your therapist, and celebrate every step forward.

Runners, cyclists, and triathletes—this one’s for you.

If knee pain, joint issues, or recovery from surgery is holding you back, Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training could change the game.

• Build strength without heavy loads – BFR allows muscle growth and activation at much lighter weights, reducing stress on your joints.
• Boost endurance – train your muscles to go longer and resist fatigue, perfect for long-distance athletes.
• Protect against atrophy – even when movement is limited after injury or surgery, BFR keeps your muscles working and engaged.
• Safe + effective – guided by a physical therapist, BFR gives you the stimulus your body needs without pushing your joints past their limit.

Whether you’re logging miles, grinding on the bike, or getting back after injury—BFR can help you stay strong, perform longer, and recover smarter.

Contact us to find out if BFR training is right for you.

Weight Training Without the Injuries

At ScerboPT, as physical therapists who’ve seen it all, we can tell you—proper form isn’t just about making gains; it’s about staying injury-free for the long haul. Whether you’re a seasoned CrossFit athlete or a dedicated gym-goer pushing your limits, technique matters more than how much weight you lift.

Here are a few key reminders to keep your training smart and injury-free:

• Warm up intentionally – Activate the right muscle groups before loading up.
• Focus on form first, not ego – Master bodyweight and lighter loads before going heavy.
• Engage your core – Always. It’s your body’s natural stabilizer.
• Control the eccentric – Slow, controlled lowering protects joints and improves strength.
• Don’t skip mobility work – Healthy joints mean stronger lifts and fewer setbacks.

Even minor errors in form can lead to nagging pain or long-term injury. If you're unsure about your technique or dealing with discomfort that won’t go away, don’t push through it.

Contact our Edgewater, NJ clinic if you’re recovering from an injury or want to work with a professional Sports Rehabilitation Therapist or Performance Training Specialist to optimize your performance and protect your body for the long run.
