Elbow Surgery (Rehabilitation)

What's behind it?

Elbow joint procedures — whether after a fracture, tendon reconstruction, or arthroscopy — require careful rehabilitation. The elbow joint is particularly prone to movement restriction and stiffness. We guide you structurally through the rehab phases and restore mobility, strength, and load capacity.

Causes

  • Fractures of the elbow joint
  • Tendon reconstruction (e.g. biceps tendon)
  • Arthroscopic procedures (e.g. removal of loose bodies)
  • Surgery for chronic epicondylitis

Symptoms

  • Movement restriction after surgery
  • Swelling and muscle atrophy
  • Pain-related compensatory posture
  • Reduced strength in the arm
