Surgery can be a life-changing event, whether it’s a joint replacement, spinal procedure, or soft tissue repair. But did you know that physiotherapy before and after surgery can dramatically improve your outcomes? At PROHEALTH PHYSIO & FITNESS (EP), we specialise in pre- and post-operative rehabilitation that helps you heal faster, move better, and regain confidence in your body.
Why Pre-Surgery Physiotherapy Matters
Also known as prehabilitation, physiotherapy before surgery prepares your body and mind for the procedure ahead.
Key Benefits:
- Improved Strength & Mobility: Targeted exercises strengthen muscles around the surgical site, making recovery smoother.
- Faster Post-Op Recovery: A stronger body before surgery often leads to quicker healing and reduced complications.
- Pain Management: Learning pain control techniques in advance helps you cope better post-surgery.
- Education & Confidence: Understanding what to expect reduces anxiety and empowers you to take charge of your recovery.
Post-Surgery Physiotherapy: Your Path to Full Recovery
After surgery, physiotherapy becomes essential to restore function, reduce pain, and prevent long-term limitations.
Post-Operative Benefits:
- Accelerated Healing: Guided movement and manual therapy promote circulation and tissue repair.
- Reduced Scar Tissue & Stiffness: Early mobilization prevents adhesions and joint immobility.
- Customized Rehab Plans: Every patient receives a tailored program based on their surgery, goals, and lifestyle.
- Return to Daily Activities: From walking to sports, we help you regain independence and performance.
