Pre-op Physio Benefits

Every surgery is different, but the general rule of thumb is 6 weeks prior is a great choice for pre-operation physiotherapy. Prior to undergoing major surgery pre-hab is a incredible way to:

  • Improve strength and mobility to the greatest degree possible prior to surgery

  • Improve post-operative confidence in rehab expectations; get familiar with the process and your physio

  • Assist with decreasing physical and mental stresses and apprehension associated with surgery

  • Improve post-operative outcomes

  • Reduce post-operative recovery time
