Post Orthopaedic Surgery

From the prevention of blood clots and reducing the risk of chest infections, to providing pain relief and increasing strength, range of motion and function, physiotherapy plays a vital role in post-operative physiotherapy.

Our highly skilled Team at Bay Active Physio are dedicated to optimising post-surgical outcomes for our patients.

We endeavour to by remain up to date with post-operative protocols and will liaise closely with our referring surgeons, providing them with updates on your recovery or contacting them directly with any questions or concerns should they arise.

We also recognise that in the early days following your surgery, you may not feel up to coming into our clinic or you may not be able to drive because of your surgery. But do not worry, home visits are available, allowing you to be treated in the comfort of your own home – even in your jammies.
