As joints wear down over time, replacement surgery can offer significant relief from chronic pain and restricted movement. But the surgery itself is only part of the journey — structured physiotherapy before and after the operation plays a major role in how well and how quickly you regain function.
Our pre-surgical sessions focus on building strength ahead of the operation, while post-surgical rehabilitation guides you carefully through healing, mobility and strength milestones so you can return to daily activity with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
In most cases, gentle mobility work begins within a day or two after surgery, following your surgeon's specific protocol.
This varies by individual and procedure, but many patients progress from a walker to a cane, and eventually to walking unaided, over several weeks of guided rehabilitation.
