Your Physiotherapy Appointment
Physiotherapy for Surgery Preparation and Rehabilitation
We regularly support patients before and after:
- Joint replacements
- Ligament repairs
- Orthopaedic procedures
Surgery might fix the structure, but rehab restores the function. We regularly help people before and after joint replacements or ligament repairs.
“Pre-hab” can often lead to a smoother recovery, while post-op care focuses on getting you moving safely while your body heals.
We can work with your consultant and GP where appropriate.
Our Approach to Evidence-Based Physiotherapy
At 3 Way Physio in Woodley, we combine:
- Clinical reasoning informed by current research
- Hands-on assessment
- Structured rehabilitation principles
- Patient education
We avoid exaggerated claims and focus on measurable improvement. Outcomes depend on the condition, severity and adherence to rehabilitation.
If we feel another specialist opinion is required, we will advise you accordingly.
