PhysiotherapyPost-Operative Rehabilitation Physiotherapy
Structured recovery, staged to your surgery. Post-operative rehabilitation restores strength, mobility and confidence after surgery, following a plan built around your surgeon's protocol.
What is Post-Operative Rehabilitation Physiotherapy?
Recovering from orthopedic, spinal, neurological or abdominal surgery often means dealing with pain, weakness, stiffness and reduced independence in the weeks that follow. Post-operative physiotherapy addresses all of it through a structured, staged exercise and manual therapy program.
Your first session — at least an hour — includes a full assessment of your condition, what's driving your pain, a realistic recovery timeline, and how to reduce the risk of re-injury.
Treatment follows three phases: early recovery (gentle manual therapy and basic movement to reduce pain and swelling), strength and range of motion (progressive exercise, balance and proprioception work), and functional restoration (a personalized program that prepares you for your specific daily life or activity level).
