What it is

Understanding spinal surgery rehab

Whether you've had a discectomy, laminectomy, or spinal fusion, structured rehab after spinal surgery rebuilds the strength, movement confidence, and endurance that back problems — and the surgery itself — take away.

Common symptoms

  • Post-surgical stiffness and guarded movement
  • Weakness in the core, hips, and legs
  • Reduced tolerance for sitting, standing, or walking
  • Nervousness about bending and lifting again
  • Deconditioning from the months before surgery

Common causes

  • Recent discectomy, laminectomy, or fusion
  • Movement restrictions during early healing
  • Pre-surgical pain limiting activity for months or years

How we treat it

Our approach at Mvmt Theory

We work within your surgeon's protocol and timelines: gentle early movement and walking progression, then graduated core, hip, and leg strengthening, then a steady return to bending, lifting, and the activities you had to give up. The goal isn't just protecting the surgery — it's making sure you actually get your life back from it.

This page is general information, not a diagnosis. A one-on-one assessment is the right way to find out what's going on with your body.
