Post-Operative Rehabilitation
Post-operative physiotherapy is the cornerstone of a patient's full functional recovery after musculoskeletal surgery. Our home-based care begins in the very first stages of recovery, ensuring the correct application of clinical protocols for progressive loading and mobilisation. Our goal is to prevent complications (such as adhesions, muscle atrophy, etc.), gradually restore the joint's range of motion and fully regain the patient's muscle strength.
Partial / Total Joint Replacement
Early mobilisation from the first post-operative days for smooth tissue healing, restoration of range of motion and full recovery of limb function.
Fracture & Osteosynthesis Management
Guided therapeutic exercise after internal or external fixation, to address the muscle atrophy caused by immobilisation and to load the limb safely and progressively.
Post-Operative Rehabilitation of Sports Injuries
Application of the early stages of rehabilitation protocols for a smooth transition from surgery to movement, focusing on progressive loading, muscle activation and protecting the surgical outcome.
Spinal Surgery
Specialised protocols to protect the operated area, safely retrain everyday movements and gradually strengthen the core.

Frequently Asked
Questions
Find answers to frequently asked questions about home physiotherapy sessions and how our services work.
When does post-operative rehabilitation start?
Post-operative rehabilitation can start within the first few days after surgery or after a few weeks. The exact starting time is determined by the treating doctor and the type of surgery. The physiotherapy programme is designed following a physiotherapy assessment, in line with international clinical guidelines for the type of surgery.
How does post-operative rehabilitation help?
Its aim is to reduce pain, restore movement and build strength, so that you can return to your daily activities faster and more safely.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions is not the same for everyone. It is determined after the physiotherapy assessment, depending on the type of surgery and the response to treatment.
Can rehabilitation be done at home?
Yes. United Physios physiotherapists hold sessions in your own space, which makes the period after surgery much easier.
