Physical Therapy for Total Hip Replacements

Hip Replacement Recovery in Georgetown, KY

Move Freely, Walk Confidently

Hip replacement surgery is a major step toward pain relief — but recovery doesn’t end when the incision heals. Many older adults are left wondering: How much should I push? When will I feel steady again? Will I ever move like I used to?

The answer: with the right rehab plan, yes. Your recovery should help you not just heal, but return stronger, more mobile, and more confident than ever.

At Hyphen, we work with older adults every day who are recovering from total hip replacements. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy guide you through a progressive plan that restores strength, improves movement, and prevents long-term issues like imbalance or weakness.

Your personalized rehab plan may include:

  • Strength training for hips, glutes, and core

  • Gait training to improve walking mechanics

  • Balance and stability work to prevent falls

  • Flexibility and range-of-motion exercises

  • Education on joint protection and safe progression
