Pre-Surgical Physiotherapy (Prehabilitation)

Pre-surgical physiotherapy — often called “prehab” — plays an important role in improving surgical outcomes.

Research consistently shows that patients who strengthen and prepare their body before surgery:

  • Recover faster

  • Experience fewer complications

  • Regain strength more efficiently

  • Feel more confident entering surgery

Our pre-surgical rehabilitation programs focus on:

  • Improving joint mobility

  • Strengthening surrounding muscles

  • Reducing inflammation where possible

  • Optimising movement patterns

  • Educating you on what to expect post-surgery

Common surgeries we prepare patients for include ACL reconstruction, joint replacements, shoulder stabilisation and arthroscopic procedures.

Post-Surgical Physiotherapy Rehabilitation

Post-operative rehabilitation is critical to restoring function and preventing long-term complications.

After surgery, your body requires structured, progressive loading to:

  • Restore range of motion

  • Manage swelling and inflammation

  • Rebuild strength

  • Improve stability

  • Retrain balance and coordination

  • Safely return to work or sport

At East Vic Park Physiotherapy, we create personalised rehabilitation plans tailored to your surgery, stage of healing and personal goals.

Your program may include:

  • Manual therapy

  • Progressive strengthening exercises

  • Functional movement retraining

  • Balance and proprioception training

  • Return-to-sport testing (where appropriate)

We work closely with surgeons and other healthcare providers to ensure your rehabilitation aligns with post-operative protocols.
