Pre-Operative Physiotherapy: Building Your Surgical Success

Accidents and injuries are an inevitable part of life. When they do occur, our skilled team stands ready to support your recovery journey. However, a proactive approach can make all the difference, especially when facing planned or “elective” surgery.

The Power of Pre-Operative Preparation

Pre-operative physiotherapy represents a crucial yet often overlooked phase in the surgical process. This preparation period offers a valuable opportunity to:

Strengthen key muscle groups that will support your recovery

Improve overall physical conditioning before surgical stress

Learn proper movement patterns for post-operative rehabilitation

Address any existing movement limitations or compensations

Reduce anxiety through familiarisation with post-op exercises

Investing in Your Surgical Outcome

Think of pre-operative physiotherapy as an investment in your recovery timeline. By dedicating time and effort before surgery, you’re essentially making a deposit that will pay significant dividends during your rehabilitation phase.

Research consistently demonstrates that patients who engage in structured pre-operative physiotherapy typically experience:

Faster return to functional independence

Reduced post-operative pain levels

Decreased risk of complications

Shorter hospital stays

More efficient rehabilitation progression

Improved long-term functional outcomes

Our Pre-Operative Approach

Our specialised pre-operative program is tailored to your specific surgical procedure, physical condition, and recovery goals. We work closely with your surgical team to develop a comprehensive plan that addresses your unique needs.

Your personalised pre-operative physiotherapy may include:

Targeted strength training for muscles surrounding the surgical site

Cardiovascular conditioning to improve surgical tolerance

Movement pattern training to prepare for post-operative limitations

Education about your procedure and recovery expectations

Practical strategies for managing daily activities during recovery

Begin Your Recovery Before Surgery

Don’t wait until after your procedure to start thinking about rehabilitation. By engaging with physiotherapy in the pre-operative phase, you’re actively participating in optimizing your surgical outcome and accelerating your return to the activities you value.

Firstly a huge thankyou to you and the team for keeping me together and in one piece for yet another year. I went up to the Lake District last weekend to attempt the Lakeland 100 ultra marathon again. As you know I was still on crutches back in November post my op on my hip. In JanuaryFebruary you wisely put me onto the couch to 5K program to build me back up. Although not done with any style and I was at the very back of the field with my slowest time ever, I'm pleased to say I completed Lakeland 100 within the cut off time. I can now claim that with the support of the JSSC I have completed the couch to 170k. I came out of it reasonably unscathed having very few problems with my hip or my knee. Thanks again for all your support and help. Without your help I wouldn't even have got to the start line let alone completed an event that had c.45% drop out rate this year
