No matter what surgery you might be slated for, there are many things you can do to prepare. Equipment preparation, home
arrangements, and education what to expect are just a few. But the biggest, is building as much strength and mobility as possible before heading into surgery. The research is there. Stronger and healthier supporting structures when heading into surgery provide for quicker and easier recovery after surgery. Strength is like money in the bank, there is no such thing as too much, and the more you have, the more buffer your body has to help deal with what is coming your way.
