Ditch the soda and juice.
Your body doesn’t need the extra sugar before surgery—it needs hydration that actually supports healing.

💧 Why hydration matters before surgery:
When you go into surgery well-hydrated, you’re less likely to deal with common post-op issues like headaches, dizziness, constipation, or even slower wound healing. Fluids keep your circulation, digestion, and tissues working at their best—so your body can bounce back more smoothly afterward.

Better options:
💦 Water – Simple, clean, and effective.
🍲 Bone broth – Adds protein and minerals your tissues love.
⚡ Electrolytes – Especially helpful if you’re sweating or need an extra hydration boost.

Think of it as giving your body a head start before surgery day.

Think sleep only matters after surgery? Think again.

The week before your procedure is critical.

Aim for 8–9 quality hours of sleep each night.

💤 Deep rest = faster healing

✨ Real healing is more than pain relief — it's getting your life back.

Here’s what one client had to say after working with me:
🗣️ "...it was her advice about nutrition, movement, sleep, and hydration that has had even longer-lasting benefits."

As a functional medicine physical therapist, I look at the whole person — not just the injury. That’s how we get results that last.

Food is information. Feed your body the message it needs to heal.
Every bite you take is either building inflammation or calming it down. When you’re preparing for surgery, that matters more than ever. The right foods can help lower inflammation, support your immune system, and give your body the raw materials it needs for tissue repair.

Think colorful fruits and vegetables, clean proteins, healthy fats, and plenty of hydration. Cutting back on processed foods, added sugar, and alcohol can also make a big difference in how your body handles the stress of surgery.
Let’s choose healing—starting with what’s on your plate.

You shouldn’t have to go through surgery alone.
Having the right support lined up can make a huge difference in how smoothly your recovery goes. Think of it as setting yourself up for success before you even walk into the operating room.

Here are a few things to get in place ahead of time:
👯‍♀️ Ride home – You won’t be able to drive yourself, so make sure you’ve got a trusted friend or family member lined up.
🛌 Meal drop-off – Even simple meal prep or having someone drop off a few healthy meals can take a huge load off when you’re tired and sore.
📱 Check-in buddy – Someone who will text or call daily, especially in those first few days, so you’re never feeling stuck or alone.

It’s not just about convenience—it’s about healing. The more supported and prepared you feel, the less stress your body has to carry, which means a smoother recovery.

“I’ll just do PT after the surgery.”
It’s the most common thing I hear. But here’s the truth: waiting until post-op can delay your recovery.

Research from JAMA Network Open shows that people who do structured exercise and prehab recover faster, experience less pain, and have better function after orthopedic surgery—especially in the first few months.

Why wait to feel better? Let’s set you up for success before you even enter the OR.

Did you know your body does its most powerful healing work while you sleep?
If you’re recovering from an injury, surgery, or just feeling run down—your nighttime routine can make all the difference.

Here are 3 simple ways to support your body’s recovery tonight:
🌙 Gentle Breathwork: Try 4-7-8 breathing or extended exhales to calm your nervous system.
📖 Wind-Down Routine: A short stretch, a warm shower, or a calming book (no screens!).
🕯️ Set the Scene: Dim the lights, cut out stimulants after dinner, and keep your bedroom cool and quiet.

These small steps help reduce stress hormones and improve your sleep quality—so your body can focus on repair.

After surgery, it's easy to second-guess everything:
"Should I be doing more?"
"Did I overdo it yesterday?"
"Why am I still so tired?"

Recovery isn’t just about protocols—it’s about your body, your energy, and your healing timeline.

In this post, I’m breaking down what it really means to find the sweet spot between rest and movement—so you can avoid setbacks and support long-term healing.

If you’re navigating recovery and want guidance that looks at the full picture (not just your joint or incision), I’m here to help.
