Pre-operative rehabilitation helps you be as well-conditioned as possible before surgery to
enhance your post-operative recovery. Moreover, you will understand the therapy routine that will be in place after surgery. 

Because of the months of pain and reduced activity leading up to surgery, muscles become weaker, and walking, balance and exercise tolerance deteriorate. We recommend that you take part in a specifically prescribed rehab program prior to surgery to increase muscle strength and reduce the chance that you will require extended inpatient rehabilitation prior to being discharged home after surgery.  We have realised fantastic results with patients undergoing preoperative physiotherapy in direct comparison to those with the same conditions that did not undertake pre-op physiotherapy.
