Pre-Surgery
The goal of pre-surgery physiotherapy is to help prepare the body for the surgery and the recovery process, and to improve the chances of a successful outcome.
Pre-surgery physiotherapy typically involves a variety of exercises and techniques, such as stretching, strengthening, and range of motion exercises. These exercises can help improve the flexibility and strength of the muscles and joints around the area where the surgery will be performed.
Physiotherapy can also help improve overall physical function and mobility, which can make it easier to perform daily activities and reduce the risk of complications after the surgery. In addition, pre-surgery physiotherapy can help reduce pain and swelling in the affected joint, which can make the surgery and recovery process more comfortable.
Our qualified Physiotherapists s will design a personalised pre-surgery physiotherapy program that is tailored to your individual needs and goals.
Post-Surgery
If you have had joint replacement surgery or reconstructive surgery, we will work collaboratively with your surgeon to promote the recovery of strength and movement, improving joint and muscle function, and reducing pain.
The goal of post-surgery physiotherapy is to help the body recover from the surgery and to improve the function and mobility of the affected joint.
Post-surgery physiotherapy typically involves a variety of exercises and techniques, such as stretching, strengthening, and range of motion exercises. These exercises can help improve the flexibility and strength of the muscles and joints around the area where the surgery was performed.
Our team is experienced with a wide range of post-operative care, and we will make sure you meet your goals as safely and as quickly as possible.
