Post Operative Rehabilitation

Phsyioelite specialise in the provision of exercises following post-operative procedures.  Examples of post-operative procedures include fractures, elective surgery such as hip and knee replacements, and trauma such as road traffic accidents where a patient may have multiple injuries and requires a more complex exercise approach to their injuries.

Ultimately the important thing with exercise post-operative is to ensure the correct amount of loading is applied at the correct time.  This means that if exercise is accelerated too rapidly the patient may experience more pain and less auctionability.  It is extremely important for a patient to be given the right types of exercise at the right time in their treatment process and only a qualified and experienced physiotherapist will be able to do this. 

Physioelite has a Specialist Exercise App which is free to download to the patient.  This ensures you can follow your exercise plan using your chosen device(s).  Exercise printouts can also be provided, or PDFs can be emailed. 

Physioeltie can incorporate a review process in your treatment plan to ensure that your exercises are adapted to make sure you are progressing your exercises appropriately.  This will be managed by your physiotherapist and will be discussed at the initial assessment so that you fully understand what your post-operative rehabilitation process is going to look like.  We may incorporate some hydrotherapy exercises as part of your post-operative rehabilitation as you are buoyancy assisted in the water and this ensures that you can accelerate your exercises earlier on in a treatment process.  This will be discussed between you and your physiotherapist.

James provided me with 11 weeks of diligent, knowledgeable and fundamentally worthwhile physio treatment following a hip operation. On top of this James assisted with hydro therapy which was an important development in my recovery. His explanation of my circumstance was described in a fashion that made a complicated situation much more coherent for me. Following treatment with James, I feel much stronger in my hip and body more generally, and have a greater understanding of hip anatomy and what I need to do to continue recovering well. I also appreciate the straightforward nature of booking appointments thanks to his office. Overall, I would recommend James to anyone in need of post surgical rehabilitation or merely minor muscle strains and the like. Thank you James for all the help.

James was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. He managed to diagnose and treat an injury I had been suffering with for a year. After a course of treatment and shockwave therapy, the issue has gone.

Great practice. Fitted me in at short notice, was very knowledgeable, explained everything clearly and gave very effective treatment. I was also given exercises to complete after treatment to continue my progress. Well recommended.

James provide honest professional opinions, developed a management plan at the very beginning and set realistic expectations of what we could achieve or not. Good availability for appointments and flexible fair fees structure. Has motivated me to make a major lifestyle change on long term fitness. Wan

I went to see James with what turned out to be frozen shoulder. James was great, explaining clearly what was the issue and how physio would help. In addition to the physio he showed me a number of exercises that I should do in between sessions. I would recommend James.

Been to James for rugby injuries years ago and came back recently due to back and groin issues. He sorted me insoles for my flat feet he picked up on. Done a great job at sorting my back out. Knows what he’s on about

I cannot speak highly enough about James and Ruth! My 7 year old had quite a difficult elbow injury to treat. James was patient and worked so well with my son; he made the sessions fun and interesting. He even bought him an Easter egg to celebrate arm straightening after months of it being bent! Ruth was always lovely to deal with, and very understanding when we had to reschedule appointments. We feel blessed to have found such an excellent physio, and have no hesistation in recommending him.

James is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and professional. I had been suffering with a neck and shoulder injury for years and no previous physiotherapists was able to give me relief. In just a few months with James, i feel so much better and i'm gaining back my quality of life.
