Surgeries We Commonly See

pain after surgery

Pain After Surgery

Pain is one of the most common reasons people seek care after surgery. The body needs time to heal, and you may feel discomfort around the affected area. Rehabilitation can help you manage pain as you heal.

knee replacement rehab

Knee Replacement

Knee replacement surgery is commonly performed for severe knee pain, arthritis, or joint damage. After surgery, rehabilitation focuses on strength, flexibility, and returning to walking and daily activities.

hip replacement rehab

Hip Replacement

Hip replacement surgery is done for chronic hip pain caused by arthritis or injury. Physiotherapy after surgery focuses on mobility, strengthening the surrounding muscles, and walking comfortably.

meniscus repair rehab

Meniscus Repair

Meniscus repair surgery treats a torn meniscus, the cartilage in the knee that cushions the thigh bone and shin bone. Tears often happen during sports, sudden twisting, or accidents, and can cause knee pain, swelling and stiffness.

spinal surgery rehab

Spinal Surgery

Spinal surgery is often performed for conditions such as herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease. Rehabilitation after surgery focuses on movement, strength and returning to daily activities as your surgeon advises.

fracture repair rehab

Fracture Repair

Fracture repair surgery is performed when a broken bone needs plates, screws, rods, or pins to stay in position while it heals. After surgery, rehabilitation helps you work on normal movement and strength.
