Strength and Mobility Recovery Program | Ethos Plastic Surgery (NV)
After surgery, movement can feel uncertain. Muscles that once felt strong may hesitate, and even simple motions can bring unfamiliar sensations. Our thoughtfully designed Strength & Mobility program was created to help you rebuild trust in your body: gently, intentionally, and without pressure.
As part of The GX Collection™, it reflects Dr. Ginger Xu’s holistic approach to healing that’s based on compassionate guidance, grounded in evidence, and designed to help you return to strength with calm and confidence.
A Guided Return to Movement
The Strength & Mobility program is a series of thoughtfully sequenced videos that restore function, posture, and ease after surgery. Each short session builds on the last, starting with breathwork and gentle mobility, progressing toward simple strength and alignment. Every movement is guided, safe, and informed by the natural timeline of recovery.
Rather than pushing for performance, this program focuses on reconnection. You’ll learn to listen to your body, move without fear, and rediscover the balance between rest and activity. These routines are especially supportive after surgeries that engage deeper muscle layers, such as tummy tucks or submuscular breast augmentations, but can also be beneficial to other post-surgery patients or anyone seeking to feel more grounded and at home in their body again.
With clear instruction and calm pacing, the Strength & Mobility series helps improve circulation, prevent stiffness, and gradually reawaken the body’s natural strength. This program was created to make recovery feel less like restriction and more like renewal. It bridges the space between surgery and daily life to help get you moving safely and confidently in no time. Whether you’re just beginning to heal or are already months into recovery, these videos gently support your body’s return to strength, balance, and wholeness.
Meet Dr. Ginger Xu
Dr. Xu embraces the responsibility and transformative opportunity to alter a patient’s appearance in a way that is congruent with their own values and matches a more cohesive sense of self; to realign the external with the internal; to create an improved emotional landscape and a better life. These ideals captivate and inspire her every day.
Healing That Goes Beyond the Procedure
At Ethos Plastic Surgery, we believe in supporting the whole patient. Strength and mobility plans are one of many tools we embrace to enhance comfort, calm, and confidence during your surgical journey. Dr. Ginger Xu believes that true healing extends beyond the operating room.
Our approach to healing is grounded in the Seven Pillars of Healing and Five Guiding Principles of ETHOS: a sensory-informed framework designed to support the body’s innate ability to recover. The Seven Pillars of Healing align with our five senses, recognizing that sensory input directly influences the nervous system, which in turn governs inflammation, pain, and tissue repair. Each element of our recovery program, from nutrition to movement to touch, is chosen with intention, rooted in evidence, and sequenced to work synergistically. This thoughtful integration helps reduce stress, enhance circulation, support immune function, and accelerate healing from the inside out.
Whether through strength and mobility or aromatherapy, guided visualization, nutrition, integrative healing, sound healing, or lymphatic massage, each element is thoughtfully incorporated to help you feel balanced, empowered, and connected to your body. This whole-self approach is what makes the Ethos experience both transformative and deeply personal.
