Rehab After Surgery- Let’s get you moving!

Sometimes surgery may be necessary to enhance your health and it can be stressful, both physically and emotionally. Our highly skilled physiotherapists will endeavor to actively work with your surgeon and yourself to make sure you are getting the best possible treatment towards regaining optimal function, movement, and strength both before and/or after surgery.

Elective Pre-Surgery Physiotherapy

Research has clearly illustrated the advantages of physiotherapy before elective orthopedic surgeries. We recommend pre-surgery physiotherapy to enable an enhanced healing and recovery process. Following a comprehensive assessment, you will be given a pre-surgery exercise program to keep up your strength, movement, and function, in addition to preparing you for your post-surgery programme.

Post-Surgery Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy after orthopedic surgery is essential for optimal recovery. Our skilled physiotherapists are experts at providing rehabilitation for patients after surgery and will undertake a comprehensive assessment after your surgery, which will involve ongoing evaluation of your function, mobility, and strength. As per the different stages of healing, your goals and progress, your physiotherapist will prescribe a personalized rehabilitation program. We will continue to keep close contact with your specialist as needed for the duration of your treatment.
