Post-op Rehabilitation Physiotherapy Edinburgh
Surgery and other medical treatments (e.g. radiotherapy) can take a huge toll on the body. The right physio support will help you reduce pain, regain movement and improve fitness, in the right way and at the right pace.
Speed up recovery. Combat pain. Get your movement back.
Post-surgical physiotherapy may be beneficial, and in some cases (e.g. after major orthopaedic or neurological surgery), necessary after a variety of surgical procedures ranging from cardiac to abdominal surgery.
Problems associated with surgery and post-surgical recovery period might include the following:
-
Loss of strength and fitness, reduced ability to exercise.
-
Chronic and acute pain.
-
Reduction in the movement range and general loss of mobility.
-
Swelling.
-
Balance and coordination issues.
-
Loss of sensation and other neurological symptoms.
-
Continence problems.
-
Reduced lung capacity and breathing difficulties.
Who can benefit from post-surgery physiotherapy and rehabilitation?
Anyone who has undertaken surgery, radiotherapy or spent a prolonged period in hospital or bed-bound can benefit from physiotherapy consultation and advice. Pain, fatigue, muscle weakness, stiffness, dizziness and disequilibrium, reduced mobility and fitness can all be helped.
Boosting your ability to move will also improve your mental status, and increase independence while reducing stress and anxiety.
After a thorough assessment, a guided exercise programme combined with tried and tested treatments will be designed for you, so you can confidently, safely and effectively get to optimal levels of functioning.

I have been working out in the gym and for a long time I had a problem with a painful elbow especially after a chest and triceps day. After one treatment of Shockwave I felt a big difference, like I had a new elbow. Thank you, Sebastian.
