Post Knee/Hip Replacement Physiotherapy
Speed up your recovery to get back to doing the things you love after your knee or hip replacement. Let our Physiotherapists guide the process to safely restore your ability to move well and with confidence.
Assessment
Start with an assessment to evaluate your current status and develop an individualized program for Individual or Group Setting Treatment.
Post Knee Replacement: Book your assessment 1-2 weeks post-surgery (even with the staples still in).
Post Hip Replacement: Book your assessment 3-4 weeks post-surgery.
Treatment
Physiotherapy treatment includes monitoring for complications, restoring range of motion, and training for strength, balance, and ambulation. Functional tasks such as lifting, carrying, stairs, job and leisure activity goals are addressed. Written home programs are provided. Hands-on treatment may include scar massage, assisted stretching, and management of swelling and pain.
Choose Individual or Group Setting Treatment.
Individual Treatment: This allows you to book one-on-one appointments to fit your schedule and support needs. Virtual appointments are available. All that is required is a stable internet connection and either a computer or laptop with a web camera OR a smartphone.
Group Setting Treatment: Each participant has an individualized program that they follow under physiotherapist supervision with regular reassessments and progression. Share experiences and learn what helped others in various stages of recovery. Your support person may accompany you.
