Surgery is only one stage of healing. Physiotherapy restores movement, strength, and confidence so recovery is complete and sustainable.
Why post-surgery rehabilitation matters
- Prevents stiffness and muscle loss
- Improves pain and swelling control
- Restores safe movement patterns
Typical protocol stages
- Pain and inflammation management
- Gentle range-of-motion progression
- Strength and balance restoration
- Functional return-to-activity training
Recovery duration
Timelines vary by surgery and patient profile. Minor surgeries may need weeks, while major orthopedic procedures may require several months.
