Post-Op Rehab in Hudson, MA

Surgery Is Done. Now Let's Build You Back.

Recovery after surgery is more than exercises in a clinic. At Move Strong, you get 1-on-1 performance-minded rehab and a clear progression to return to the activities you love.

What Basic Rehab Leaves on the Table

Strength Deficits That Linger

When rebuilding strength isn't prioritized from the start, deficits compound. You return to sport weaker and more vulnerable than you need to be.

No Clear Progression Plan

Without objective milestones guiding each phase, you're left guessing when it's truly safe to run, lift, or return to your sport.

Confidence Doesn't Come Back on Its Own

Generic rehab gets you walking. A performance-minded plan gets you back to competing and training with real trust in your body.

I have been seeing Andrew for about 5 years now and can honestly say I don’t think I’d still be playing sports without his help. He has always been available whenever I have needed him, and has always helped me heal as quick as possible. He is also a great guy and always happy to see his clients.
John Herlihy
Andrew and everyone at Move Strong Physical Therapy has helped me recover from a fall off my horse, back in May 2021. Not only did they help me physically but also cared for my mental health as well. I will forever be thankful for MSPT for getting me “back in the saddle”!

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about post-op rehab, timelines, and what to expect when you work with Move Strong after orthopedic surgery.

How soon after surgery can I start?

That depends on your surgeon's protocol and the type of procedure. Reach out early and we can coordinate with your surgical team to ensure a smooth transition into rehab as soon as you're cleared to begin.

How is this different from standard post-op PT?

Every session is 1-on-1 and built around your specific surgery, goals, and sport. We use objective tools to track strength and guide each progression—not time-based protocols that treat every patient the same.

Can you give me a timeline for recovery?

We won't give a guaranteed timeline because every person and every surgery is different. What we will give you is a clear, objective plan with measurable milestones so you always know how your progress is being tracked.

Do you work with my surgeon?

Yes. We're happy to coordinate with your surgical team and work within their protocols. Our goal is to complement your surgical care and take your performance beyond what standard rehab typically delivers.

Do you accept insurance for post-op rehab?

Move Strong is cash-based. We accept HSA and FSA, provide superbills for possible reimbursement, and may submit to insurance on your behalf upon request. Many patients find the 1-on-1 care well worth the investment.
