Surgery is generally seen as a last resort that’s only useful once other non-invasive measures (like physiotherapy) have been exhausted. Orthopaedic surgeons normally recommend a thorough physiotherapy assessment and course of treatment before surgery can happen. Post-operatively, physiotherapy is there to ensure a successful recovery. It focuses on:
- restoring mobility
- strengthening muscles
- restoring normal movement patterns
We’re happy to treat clients before or after elective orthopaedic procedures including:
- Shoulder – arthroscopy, tendon or ligament repairs, decompressions, joint replacement, fracture management, acromioclavicular joint repair
- Hip – arthroscopy, labral repair, joint replacement, injection
