Pre & Post Operative Rehabilitation

Surgery is generally the final step in any problem and is only undertaken when more conservative measures such as physiotherapy have failed to produce the desired or optimal result.

IIn most cases, Orthopaedic Surgeons ensure that their clients have received a comprehensive physiotherapy assessment and course of treatment before other interventions or surgery are contemplated.

Post-operative Physiotherapy treatment

A major part of the successful outcome following surgical procedures is good physiotherapy treatment concentrating on:

• restoring optimal mobility
• strengthening weakened and disused muscles
• compensation for any functional loss
• restoring normal movement patterns and habits
