Why is rehabilitation individual after surgery or fracture?
The procedure or fracture, current movement limitations and medical restrictions all affect the starting point. The clinic requests reports and specialist clearance when clinically indicated and does not use one programme for every operation.
How we approach your care
Review the type of surgery or fracture, relevant reports and specialist restrictions.
Set goals for joint movement, strength and daily activities within those restrictions.
Review progress and adjust care, coordinating or referring when medical needs are beyond physiotherapy scope.
Sessions, progress and realistic expectations
Frequency and duration are decided case by case. Walking, stairs and functional independence may be goals, but healing and rehabilitation are not interchangeable. Your surgeon’s restrictions remain important even if a movement feels easier.
Typical physiotherapy appointments last around 60 minutes, depending on individual needs. Ask about the proposed treatment time and review schedule for this service. Your total course is decided after assessment.
More about recovery and follow-upWhen to seek medical help
New pain and swelling in one calf or leg after surgery needs urgent medical assessment for a possible blood clot. If accompanied by chest pain or breathlessness, seek emergency care immediately. Contact your surgical team about other new postoperative concerns and follow their discharge instructions.
This is general information, not an individual diagnosis or a complete list of warning signs. Emergency symptoms need medical care, not a routine appointment.
Your questions, answered
When can I start physiotherapy after surgery?
Follow your surgeon’s advice and share their instructions with the clinic. Appropriate timing depends on your procedure and restrictions.
Do you provide rehabilitation after fractures?
Yes. Post-fracture rehabilitation is confirmed, with assessment and relevant medical clearance where indicated.
What reports should I bring?
Bring relevant discharge information, prescriptions and any rehabilitation or movement restrictions supplied by your treating team.
Can physiotherapy remove my weight-bearing restrictions?
No. Do not change specialist restrictions without advice from the treating team. The physiotherapy plan must take them into account.
Will every patient need the same number of sessions?
No. Goals, limitations and progress determine follow-up needs. The clinic does not guarantee a fixed course or outcome.
When should I seek help rather than attend a rehabilitation session?
New pain and swelling in one calf or thigh after surgery need urgent medical evaluation for a possible blood clot. Chest pain or breathlessness needs emergency help. Contact your surgical team promptly if a wound becomes hot or increasingly sore, leaks pus, opens, or you develop fever or feel unwell.
Is walking the only goal after a knee replacement?
No. Rehabilitation also considers daily activities and the knee’s movement and strength. Follow the exercises and restrictions supplied by the hospital and treating team. Recovery can take several months or longer, and progress differs between people.
Do I need physiotherapy after surgery?
Need and timing depend on the operation and treating team’s advice. The clinic offers orthopaedic post-operative rehabilitation and reviews relevant instructions and restrictions. Do not assume every procedure requires the same programme.
Can physiotherapy help with mobility and flexibility?
Joint mobility, strength and functional rehabilitation are part of the clinic’s confirmed care. Explain the activities you want to return to, such as walking, stairs or household tasks. Appropriate goals and expected progress depend on individual assessment.
