Post Surgical Physiotherapy
Personalised treatment plan
After surgery, it’s common to experience pain, stiffness, reduced mobility, and muscle weakness in the affected area. Whether you’ve had orthopaedic surgery such as a joint replacement, spinal surgery, ligament repair, or any other procedure, post-surgical physiotherapy is essential for a safe and effective recovery.
Post-surgical rehabilitation helps restore mobility, improve strength, and prevent complications, ensuring you regain independence and return to your normal activities as quickly and safely as possible.
What Challenges Can Post-Surgical Patients Face?
Following surgery, the body undergoes a healing process that can present several physical challenges, including:
- Pain and swelling in the operated area
- Stiffness and reduced joint mobility due to immobilisation or scar tissue
- Muscle weakness after surgery or a period of inactivity
- Loss of balance and coordination
- Difficulty performing daily tasks such as walking, dressing, or driving
- Risk of complications like blood clots or postural issues if rehabilitation is delayed
Early physiotherapy intervention can help address these challenges and promote optimal healing.
How Can Physiotherapy Help After Surgery?
Post-Surgical Physiotherapy in Birmingham provides a structured, evidence-based approach to recovery. After assessing your condition and surgical history, your physiotherapist will develop a personalised rehabilitation plan that may include:
- Pain management strategies, including gentle movement and advice on activity pacing
- Manual therapy techniques to reduce stiffness and promote mobility
- Range-of-motion exercises to restore flexibility in the affected area
- Strengthening exercises to rebuild muscle and support joints
- Balance and gait training for safe walking and movement patterns
- Education on safe progression, lifestyle modifications, and preventing re-injury
The goal is to support your healing, enhance recovery outcomes, and help you return to your daily activities with confidence.

Highly recommend.
I had been dealing with persistent shoulder pain that was affecting my daily life and sleep. After trying various treatments with little success, I visited caregate clinics, where Raj recommended shockwave therapy. The results were amazing!

Very happy with treatment.
My arm had no good movement after stroke. Walking was very hard, very slow. Raj helped me lot. He gave very good exercises, was very patient with me. Now my arm is stronger, I can hold things better. My walking is also better, more balance.

I can’t recommend him highly enough!
I had been struggling with severe lower back pain and sciatica, which made even the simplest tasks unbearable—especially sleeping. After seeing Raj my pain levels reduced significantly, and for the first time in weeks, I was able to get a good night’s sleep.

At 77 years old, I was struggling with persistent leg pain that made even simple daily activities difficult. From my very first visit, I was treated with such kindness, patience, and professionalism. Their expert care has made a real difference, and I now feel much more confident in managing my pain.

I’m back to doing what I love!
I sprained my ankle playing sports, and at first, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get back to my usual activities. They provided me with exercises that were perfect for my age and helped me regain strength and mobility.
