Frequently Asked Questions
When should physiotherapy start after surgery?
This depends on the type of surgery and the recovery protocol set by your surgeon; some procedures allow light movement work early on, while others require a waiting period. The right starting point is determined together with your surgeon's guidance.
How long does rehabilitation after knee replacement take?
This varies by person, surgical technique and prior movement capacity; no fixed timeline can be given in advance. A general roadmap is shared at the first assessment and updated as you progress.
Do I need a doctor's report to start physiotherapy?
Knowing the restrictions and healing stage set by your surgeon is important for building a safe program; bringing your surgical/discharge report to the first session is recommended whenever possible.
Does orthopedic rehabilitation apply to non-surgical joint problems too?
Yes — for fractures or non-surgical conditions that still limit joint movement or cause muscle weakness, a similar exercise-based approach can be applied.
