At Mercer-Bucks Orthopaedics we have a Home Exercise Program just for you!
What is the Home Exercise Program?
It is a series of videos created by our therapists at Mercer-Bucks Orthopaedics. The home exercise program can compliment your in office care with us or completely eliminate the need to travel away from your home. The videos are custom to our practice and chosen by your physician. They demonstrate how to perform exercises at home specific to your diagnosis.
Why do you have an exercise program?
We understand there can be circumstances that prevent you from attending therapy with us in the office. This program will allow our patients to have access to a custom exercise program from their home. Patients using this product can feel confident they are doing the exercises appropriate to their diagnosis and chosen by their physician.
Can anyone do these exercises / am I a candidate?
The exercises are only for post-surgical total hip and knee replacement and some select shoulder diagnoses.
Why would I want to participate in this program?
The exercises are important to help you gain range of motion and strength. This will ensure a better recovery and restoration of normal function. Your physician will encourage this for you. The videos allow you to access a custom program from the comfort of your home.
How do I begin to participate in this program?
Talk to your physician or therapist and see if you are a candidate.
