Recovering digestive wellness or achieving weight loss resolution doesn't conclude with surgical or initial medical intervention. Recovery and rehabilitation are prescribed phases to finalize your long-term health and ensure you gain the full benefit of GI or bariatric surgical intervention. At Life Rx Healthcare, our multidisciplinary teams will provide structured programming for safe recovery that encompasses physical healing, optimal nutrition, emotional strength, and lifestyle change.
GI and bariatric recovery is multi-faceted. Following surgical intervention for Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or appropriate surgical intervention for obesity, individuals will benefit from support to redevelop energy, create safe eating patterns, and avoid complications or subsequent disease flare-ups. Our rehabilitative specialists, in collaboration with gastroenterologists or bariatric surgeons, will systematically progress each patient's diet, re-introducing activities into their daily lives and providing psychosocial support.
Key Components of Life Rx Rehabilitation
1. Nutritional Counselling: Individualized care provided by our skilled dietitians will aid in physical healing, ensure nutritional adequacy, and develop mindfulness-based eating skills to aid in symptom-free digestion and weight management post-recovery.
2. Physical Therapy and Activity Planning: Guidance to grow gentle movements, task and exercise-based functional activities, and movements to improve strength, balance, and to protect joints following weight-loss or abdominal surgical intervention.
3. Psychological Support & Motivation (Individual & Group): Individual and group sessions that focus on body image, emotional barriers, and adapting to new habits to assist you in regaining resiliency to achieve a long-term health lifestyle.
4. Ongoing Medical Monitoring: Regular check-ins, lab tests, and imaging to identify early signs of potential nutritional deficiencies, surgical complications, or GI flare-ups for proactive treatment.
