ACL rehab in Warwick.

What It Is

The four phases, built for your knee.

Surgery repairs the ligament. It doesn’t rebuild the strength, control, and confidence you lost around it. That work happens after, and it happens in a specific order.

Your rehab follows the same four phases every time: Pain, Prime, Perform, Prevent. Each phase has a job: calm things down, restore motion, rebuild strength. Then you prove it under real load before moving to the next one.

Dr. Peter Dionisopoulos guides every visit himself, one-on-one. The plan adjusts to how your knee is actually responding, not a printed protocol running on a calendar.

Questions, Answered

ACL rehab, no mystery.

Timing depends on your surgeon’s protocol and how your knee is healing. Dr. Peter Dionisopoulos coordinates around that timeline and starts your evaluation as soon as you’re cleared, so the four phases begin without delay.

A hospital handout covers the basics right after surgery. It doesn’t rebuild the strength, control, and confidence needed to cut, pivot, or trust the knee under real load. That’s exactly what the later phases, Perform and Prevent, are built for.

It depends on your plan. We verify your exact benefits before your first visit, so there’s no surprise on your bill. Questions before then? Call us at 401-702-0293.
