PRE-AND-POST JOINT REPLACEMENT

Pre–and–post joint replacement: full plan for your body (wrapped around your surgery timeline).

Real talk for hip, knee, or shoulder surgery.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Practical advice. Practical exercises.

Kick-off your morning with butter on your toast (instead of lower back pain).

After struggling with persistent lower back pain, visiting Dr. Tanti was a game-changer. From the thorough initial assessment to the clear treatment plan, the entire experience was professional and welcoming. The adjustments provided immediate relief, and the practical advice on posture and stretches has helped me maintain the results long-term. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking effective, holistic care for pain relief and improved mobility.

BEFORE AND AFTER

Prepare your mind (as much as your body)

Your roadmap for walking through what to expect, setting realistic goals, and adjusting when needed.

BOOKING STEPS

You like clear steps (not mysteries)

It’s not an endless line of appointments. It’s progress in real time.

Book your appointment

Book your spine, joint, and muscle clarity agreement.

Schedule your treatment

Choose a time that fits your week (online or by phone).

Plans that fit YOUR life

Build the outline for a conservative, integrated plan using the tools you actually need, including chiropractic, acupuncture/IMS, shockwave, massage, rehab, orthotics. And build both “floor” and “ideal” versions so it fits around work, kids, and energy.

Have a thorough assessment

Start with your story, then do a focused orthopaedic, chiropractic, neurological and movement exam and review any imaging you already have. You’ll know what is driving your pain and whether we’re the right place to help.

Ongoing Support

Check your progress in real‑world terms: sleep, walking, workdays, caregiving, travel. Adjust the plan based on how you respond. Ask about imaging or another specialist if needed.

FAQ

You shouldn’t have to plan your day around pain

Treatment in phases (not exact visit counts).

Q: Will chiropractic care interfere with my surgeon?

No. And it shouldn’t. We are part of your team.

The honest answer is it depends on your body, your surgery, and your goals.

After any joint surgery (such as a joint replacement, or ‘clean up’) you need to rehabilitate your joint, period. Chiropractic care is an integral part of the pre – and – post joint replacement rehabilitation process. The goal is to help improve mobility, reduce pain and stiffness, restore proper movement patterns, guide and support your rehabilitation after surgery. In some cases, conservative care may even help patients delay or avoid surgery altogether. At Riverbend Chiropractic & Wellness, treatment is always tailored to your condition, stage of healing, and recovery goal.
