Acl rehab: You can do physical therapy for about a month but further home exercises needed for up to a year to increase flexibility and strength.

ACL Rehab: It depends on the graft used to reconstruct the acl as well as the technique used by the surgeon. Generally people go to therapy for 3-6 months and are able to return to sports in 6-9 months.
