Expert Pre and Post-Operative Physiotherapy

Pre and post-operative care are indeed critical components of any surgical procedure, particularly for orthopaedic surgeries like knee or hip replacements, or ACL reconstruction. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in both preparing the body for surgery and aiding in recovery afterward.

Pre-operative physiotherapy helps to optimise muscle strength, joint mobility, and overall physical condition. By addressing any existing weaknesses or limitations beforehand, patients can often achieve better outcomes post-surgery. This preparation can also help reduce the risk of complications during and after the operation. Post-operative physiotherapy is essential for restoring mobility, strength, and function. After surgery, the body needs time to heal, but it's also important to start gentle movements and exercises to prevent stiffness, promote circulation, and gradually rebuild strength. 

At Optimal Motion, our expertise in pre and post-operative rehabilitation will provide you with personalised care plans designed to meet your specific needs. Our experienced physiotherapists understand the unique challenges associated with various surgical procedures and work closely with patients to maximize their recovery potential and regain independence in their daily activities.

 

Ultimately, the goal of physiotherapy in both pre and post-operative stages is to enhance the overall success of the surgery, minimise complications, and optimise the patient's long-term function and quality of life
