What’s Prehab?
I always recommend Physiotherapy and a home program before getting surgery. Maximizing strength and mobility beforehand can make for a smoother recovery and prevent large deficits as you heal from your procedure.
Most importantly, you have a chance to ask all the questions!
I’ve seen first hand how much more confident and relaxed clients are when they are educated in advance - and not when they are coming out of anaesthesia and completely out of it!
They often have their first rehab session already booked so that there’s no delay, they have a good handle on their first set of exercises, and they’ve already made adjustments for work and home.
You may need a couple weeks of sessions, but often it can be just one visit and a home program. Either way I give you everything you need to go into surgery feeling prepared for what’s ahead and with a lot less anxiety.
Why not try and get ahead?
