Post-Surgery Rehabilitation: Your Journey to Full Recovery
Recovering from orthopaedic surgery can be challenging. You are likely in lots of pain and worried that any movement will worsen things. You are not alone. At St M Physiotherapy Clinic, we specialise in post-surgery rehabilitation, ensuring you regain full function and return to normal activities as swiftly and safely as possible. We follow the latest rehab protocols and recommendations to ensure your recovery is in line with expected post-surgery milestones.
Why Post-Surgery Rehabilitation is Essential
After undergoing orthopaedic surgery, such as knee replacements, shoulder repairs, or hip surgeries, your body needs a structured rehabilitation program to heal effectively. The limited time frame following surgery is crucial for preventing complications and optimising recovery. Without proper post-surgery rehabilitation, you risk residual stiffness, limited range of motion, and prolonged discomfort, which can significantly hinder your overall recovery.
How We Can Help Overcoming Common Post-Surgery Challenges:
- Residual Stiffness and Limited Range of Motion: One of the most common challenges post-surgery is stiffness and reduced flexibility in the affected joints. This can lead to difficulty in performing everyday tasks and impact your quality of life. Our physiotherapy program focuses on targeted exercises and manual therapies to improve joint mobility and flexibility.
- Muscle Weakness: Surgery often leads to muscle atrophy or weakening due to immobility. Our customised strength training exercises are designed to rebuild muscle strength and endurance, ensuring you regain your functional capabilities.
- Pain Management: Post-surgery pain can be a significant barrier to recovery. We employ a range of pain relief techniques, including manual therapy, electrotherapy, and specific exercises to manage and reduce pain, facilitating a smoother rehabilitation process.
- Balance and Coordination Issues: After surgery, your balance and coordination can be affected. Our rehabilitation programs include proprioceptive and balance training to help you regain stability and prevent falls or re-injury.
