Surgery is just one part of recovery — what happens next can make all the difference. Whether you’ve had a knee replacement, spinal surgery, or shoulder repair, physiotherapy is crucial for regaining strength, flexibility, and confidence.

In this post, we walk through the stages of post-op physiotherapy: from the initial gentle movements to progressive strengthening and mobility work. Our team at Physio People takes a tailored approach to each individual, ensuring recovery is safe, supportive, and aligned with your goals.

We also address common concerns like: How soon can I start therapy? Will it hurt? How long before I feel normal again? Get clear answers and expert guidance — and learn why so many people trust physiotherapy to get back on their feet after surgery.
