Package Description

Dr. Khan will note how he works with occupational therapists so they educate and prepare patients for surgery. He also highlights how prehabilitation exercises as well as proper postural alignment and core engagement techniques support stabilizing the spine. Postoperatively, Dr. Khan shows how rehabilitation and functional recovery impacts patient outcomes. In both phases, occupational therapists work closely with the healthcare team to tailor interventions to the patient’s specific needs, promoting recovery and a safe return to daily life. This evidence-based presentation is relevant to occupational therapists as it reviews the current standard of care for a growing number of patients with cervical degenerative disc disease.
