Post-Surgery Recovery

Surgery is only part of your recovery.

Your surgeon will expect excellent, experienced physiotherapy to achieve your best outcome.

Understandable advice and treatment for pain management with simple videos of appropriate exercises for strength and flexibility goals are vital. I need to manage your expectations in relation to your procedure to prevent disappointment and confusion.  I know how to manage your brain too!

Many patients have some basic guidelines as they leave hospital but don’t know how to progress. We can build a personalised exercise programme together that fits in with your lifestyle and goals to return to sport and moving freely and with confidence.

There are important timelines to follow post-operatively. We need to allow for good healing and protect the surgery. Best outcome is achieved by following the protocols set by your surgeon. I can guide you, through these stages ensuring you reach your best potential and goals whether walking the hills, gardening or sport.
