Orthopaedic Conditions Care

If you have had orthopedic surgery, for example  a joint replacement, a reconstruction, or fractures where pins or plates may have been used, Physiotherapy will help you return to your pre-injury function quicker to enable regaining of your everyday health and well-being. Orthopaedic physio plays an essential role in recovery, in an extended range of conditions. After fractures, sprains and dislocations, our physios will plan a course of action to speed up your recovery, and monitor and record your progress.

At our clinic, you will be given personalised exercises to help you achieve a certain level of mobility. We use different treatment methods, including stretching, manual therapy, soft tissue massage and releases and gym-based exercises, to help you achieve your fitness goals. Enhancing the movement in your joints helps in proper functioning.
