Post-Surgical Rehabilitation

Undergoing orthopaedic surgery often requires post-surgical rehabilitation to ensure proper healing and the restoration of full range of movement. This crucial step in recovery is essential for regaining functionality and minimising long-term complications.

At Queensland Physiotherapy, we collaborate closely with leading orthopaedic surgeons in Brisbane to provide cutting-edge care. Our physio team stay updated on the latest post-surgical rehabilitation techniques and protocols, ensuring that every patient receives effective and evidence-based treatment. Our goal is to make your recovery as smooth, efficient, and pain-free as possible.

Treatment for post-surgical rehabilitation may include the following:

  • Core exercises to strengthen stabilising muscles.
  • Joint mobilisation techniques to improve flexibility and reduce stiffness.
  • Muscular retraining to enhance strength and movement patterns.
  • Massage to reduce swelling and promote relaxation.
  • Heat therapy to improve circulation and alleviate discomfort.
  • Electrotherapy options, including ultrasound and IF, for pain relief and tissue healing.
