pre/post-operative rehabilitation

Introduction:

At Pro Performance Physiotherapy in Dulwich Hill, we’re here to assist you throughout your pre and post-operative rehabilitation. Our specialised programs are designed to support your recovery before and after surgery. We focus on helping you regain function and ease back into your regular activities smoothly.

Pre-Operative Rehabilitation:

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.
