The importance of rehabilitation cannot be understated. Pre-surgery can help to improve your strength and ensure a quick start to your recovery. Post-surgery rehabilitation is vital to ensuring that you get the best result for the surgery and ultimately get back to your best possible level as quickly as possible.
Book an assessment now
A thorough assessment of your range of motion, your function and clear setting of goals will enable us to create a specific rehabilitation plan for you. Below is a summary of how we typically help people in particular post-surgery.
There is no secret in what the problem is when you have had surgery. So, in this situation we switch from trying to work out what the problem is, to getting clear on what your exact level is right now and where we are trying to get to do. Recovery from most surgery can be slow and therefore it is important to have markers of success that help us monitor your progress moving forwards.
Surgery can be stressful and worrying. Initially we will help you to understand the process of getting you back to full fitness.
Hands on treatment can often reduce pain and allow more pain free daily activities. It is important to do this alongside rehabilitation which gets to the root cause of the problem.
Rehabilitation post-surgery will not only ensure that you get back to doing the things you love more quickly, but also maximise the result of the surgery. The key to this is gradual and specific progression of your exercises, to make sure they are challenging you enough but not too much.
The video below provides some information that may be beneficial when preparing for and recovering from surgery. We would always recommend an assessment to be able to tailor this advice to each individual, but we hope this video can help.

I'm a retired professional. Michael came weekly to help me through recovery from total knee replacement surgery done on NHS after many years of waiting. I can honestly say that without his skilful advice, gradually building exercise regime and hands-on therapy, that experience would have been awful. Instead, I felt I had a professional friend helping and guiding me through the months it took to regain mobility. I'm awaiting surgery on the other knee and will certainly be calling upon Michael again to assist my recovery. Well worth the expense.
