Pre-operative physiotherapy can help to strengthen a patient physically and cardiovasculary. In the case of a joint physiotherapy can help maintain and improve range of movement prior to surgery and educate the client on their post operative rehabilitation. This will facilitate the client to recover from surgery at a faster rate. Following orthopaedic surgery our team of physiotherapists will liaise closely with your surgeon to follow the recommended clinical protocol.
