Before surgery, our experienced physiotherapists work closely with you to prepare your body for the upcoming procedure. This may involve strengthening specific muscle groups, improving range of motion, and addressing any pre-existing conditions that could affect your post-operative recovery.
Post-Operative Rehabilitation:
Following surgery, our team collaborates with you to create an individualised rehabilitation program based on the guidance of your treating surgeon. This program is designed to assist in your return to baseline function, taking into account the specific needs and goals of your recovery process.
