The Phased Recovery Process

Your recovery follows a structured path. In the early phase (days to 1 week), we focus on pain management and gentle movement. During the healing phase (2-4 weeks), we introduce outpatient techniques to decrease stiffness. The movement phase (4-12 weeks) ramps up activity, leading to the intensive strengthening phase (12+ weeks) to restore full power.

Personalised Home Assessment

Our physiotherapists perform an initial assessment in your home to evaluate your strength, balance, and walking ability. We also assess your home environment for fall risks and collaborate with you to set achievable recovery goals, ensuring your path to normality is clear and supported.

Nutrition, Hydration, and Rest

Healing requires more than just movement. A balanced diet rich in essential nutrients and proper hydration (8+ glasses of water) are vital for fighting swelling and replenishing energy. Coupled with 7-9 hours of quality sleep, these factors form the bedrock of your body's repair process.
