Post Operative Physiotherapy Treatments
Our dedicated team of professionals is here to support you through every step of your post-surgery rehabilitation. With a combination of expertise, cutting-edge techniques, and a compassionate approach, we aim to help you regain strength, mobility, and confidence after surgery.
Understanding Post-Op Physiotherapy
Post-operative physiotherapy is a specialised branch of physio focused on aiding patients in their recovery following surgical procedures. This type of physical therapy plays a crucial role in reducing pain, enhancing mobility, and accelerating the healing process. Whether you’ve undergone joint replacement, spinal surgery, or any other type of surgical intervention, our tailored rehabilitation programs are designed to meet your unique needs.
The Importance of Post-Surgery Rehabilitation
Pain Management
Post-operative physiotherapy helps manage and alleviate pain through various techniques such as manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and innovative treatments like Theraflex, shockwave and laser therapy.
Restoring Mobility
Surgery can often result in decreased mobility and stiffness. Our physiotherapists employ targeted exercises to restore joint range of motion and flexibility.
Strengthening Muscles
Post-surgery, muscles can weaken due to inactivity. Strengthening exercises are integral to rebuilding muscle strength and improving overall functionality.
Preventing Complications
Post-operative physio helps in preventing complications such as blood clots, scar tissue formation, and infections through guided mobility and exercise.
Optimising Recovery
Structured rehabilitation ensures that recovery is as swift and effective as possible, minimising the risk of re-injury or chronic issues.
“It’s Changed My Life”
This patient describes how they struggled with chronic spinal pain caused by a bulging disc. With pain so bad it impacted her daily life, she first received Theraflex therapy to prepare for IDD treatment.
After treatment at our clinic, she can now do everything she did before the disc bulge without feeling any pain, such as walking, lying down and exercising.
