Helping people recovering from surgery or injury get back to their former self with physiotherapy.

An experienced physiotherapist trained in post-surgery treatments, can sometimes make that journey a lot quicker, and reduce pain and stiffness with a variety of techniques. If you are experiencing any of the below symptoms, your doctor or surgeon may advise you to see a physiotherapist to assist in your recovery:

• Pain
• Loss of strength, flexibility and range of motion
