Orthopaedic Rehabilitation
Guided therapy that restores strength, movement, and function after orthopaedic surgery or injury.
What is Orthopaedic Rehabilitation?
Orthopaedic rehabilitation is a structured therapy programme that supports your recovery after joint replacement, fracture repair, ligament reconstruction, or other orthopaedic surgery or injury. Your physiotherapist guides you through a progressive plan of exercises designed to restore strength, flexibility, and range of motion in the affected area, while protecting the surgical repair as it heals. As your recovery progresses, the programme advances from gentle, protective movement to more demanding strengthening exercises aimed at returning you to your normal activities, whether that's daily life, work, or sport.
Why is this procedure performed?
- Recovery following joint replacement surgery
- Rehabilitation after ligament or tendon repair
- Recovery from a fracture or orthopaedic injury
- Regaining strength and mobility after any orthopaedic procedure
- A recommendation from your orthopaedic surgeon as part of your recovery plan
How does this procedure help?
Structured orthopaedic rehabilitation is often the difference between a good surgical result and a great one, helping you regain full strength and function more completely and safely than recovery without guided therapy. Your physiotherapist closely monitors your healing tissue's tolerance for exercise, ensuring you progress at the right pace. Most patients following a consistent rehabilitation programme achieve significantly better mobility and strength outcomes than those who do not.
