Pre & Post Orthopaedic Surgery

Let us set you up for success & speed up recovery

We have extensive experience treating people pre and post orthopaedic surgery.. By building strength and increasing mobility pre surgery, you improve your chance of a swift recovery post operatively. Concurrently, having a physiotherapist guide your post-operative recovery is also very beneficial in improving your results and returning you to normal function!

Post Operative Surgeries treated:

  • Discectomy

  • Laminectomy

  • Rotator cuff repairs

  • Labrum repairs

  • ACL repairs

  • Meniscal repairs

  • Humeral fractures

  • Tibial / fibular (ankle) fractures

  • Radial head fractures

  • Radio-ulnar (wrist) fractures

How soon can I start physiotherapy post operatively?

That depends on the guidance you get from your surgeon. Your GP or surgeon should tell you when you can start. We recommend booking your appointment in advance to ensure we can start your treatments as soon as you are able.

Post operative surgical protocols

Most surgeons will provide you with a protocol to be followed post operatively. This is given to your physiotherapist to guide their treatments with you. Please bring the protocol on your first visit. If your surgeon doesn’t have a formal protocol, your physiotherapist will ask them for any contraindications you may have post operatively (ie. movements to avoid or restrict).
