What is Post-Surgical Rehabilitation?

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation is the process of restoring one’s movement, strength, and mobility and their surgery, with the ultimate goal of helping them get back to their normal daily activities.

After a major surgery, particularly one involving the musculoskeletal system, your function and mobility will be lost. Rehab helps you regain all that was lost.

How Does Post-Surgical Rehabilitation Work?

Post-surgical rehabilitation helps you reduce the chances of developing secondary complications, relieve post-surgical pain, and regain your strength and mobility.

At Regis Wellness Physiotherapy clinic, we will assess your conditions and prepare a detailed plan to help you recover to your best state. Our post-surgical rehabs will include various exercises, strength and conditioning, stretching, functional assessment, and management of your post-surgical pain.
