An exercise program needs to be tailored to your needs and needs to take into account the specific surgery, conditions of your tissues in your back and your body type. Exercise programs focus on muscle facilitation, which is when the muscles receive special retraining to gain strength and stability following back surgery. The small muscles that work around the vertebra and stabilize the spine are focused on and are responsible for helping you relearn to walk. Many patients, after back surgery, have issues with the shoulder and hips and attention is given to those areas as well.
Swimming is going to be an important part of learning how to walk again.
This type of exercise forces the body to start working again and is effective because the body is 10 times lighter in Water than on the ground. As strength in the back and legs begin to return, you can exercise on parallel bars and use your upper body strength to help you take steps.
