ACL Reconstruction Rehabilitation

ACL reconstruction is a surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament, a key stabilizer in your knee. This type of injury can happen during sports, accidents, or everyday movements. After surgery, physical therapy is essential to restore knee strength, movement, and confidence in walking or returning to daily life.
