Post-Operative Physiotherapy plays a vital role in rehabilitation following surgery. This type of physical therapy is essential for ensuring a faster, more complete recovery. It supports patients in regaining their prior level of physical function and independence after a surgical procedure.
If you’re preparing for a planned surgery, consider pre-operative physiotherapy as well. The stronger you are before surgery, the quicker and stronger your recovery afterward. Pre-operative care prepares your body for the demands of post-surgical recovery, improving your resilience.
Focus of Post-Operative Physiotherapy
Our post-operative physiotherapy program is tailored to each patient, focusing on:
- Controlling Inflammation: Initial steps target reducing swelling and pain.
- Restoring Range of Motion: Techniques to regain full, normal movement.
- Strengthening and Stretching: Advanced exercises to rebuild strength and flexibility.
Importance of Physiotherapy After Surgery
Physiotherapy significantly supports your surgical journey by promoting early mobility, reducing complications, and encouraging a return to daily activities. By supporting your body through every stage, post-operative physiotherapy can make your rehabilitation more effective and comfortable.
