For example, reducing or eliminating swelling beforehand can ease post-operative swelling. Additionally, improving your range of motion and strength before surgery can have a major effect on your post-operative pain and functionality.

Your pre-surgery fitness and health are crucial to your post-surgery recovery. Fortunately, Perfect Balance Physiotherapy can help you prepare both mentally and physically for a quick recovery after your procedure.

What Are the Benefits of Pre-Surgical Physiotherapy?

Engaging in pre-surgical physiotherapy improves postoperative outcomes and shortens recovery time. Reducing swelling, increasing range of motion, and addressing questions about surgery, postoperative rehabilitation, and long-term prognosis can all contribute to a smoother recovery!

Before and after surgery, pre-operative exercises will enhance your range of motion, strength, and movement patterns. Entering surgery with minimal swelling, full range of motion, and overall health can enable you to return to regular activities much quicker.

Why Consider Pre-Surgical Physiotherapy

Starting a pre-surgical physiotherapy program with Perfect Balance Physiotherapy involves a tailored plan
that spans until your surgery and beyond. Here are some evidence-based reasons why physiotherapy is beneficial before surgery:

Pre-hab can address your current aches and pains.

Our physiotherapists can assist you with your current pain. Our therapists will use a variety of treatments, such as modalities and targeted manual therapy, to reduce swelling and improve joint and soft tissue mobility. These techniques can assist you in reducing your pain and learning how to manage any soreness or pain that may occur following surgery.

It reduces the likelihood of complications post-surgery.

Swelling and limited range of motion after surgery are common causes of additional pain and frustration. Learning about the signs and symptoms of serious issues such as blood clots and infection can also help you prepare to know what to look for and address to avoid complications.
Some people find rehabilitation difficult immediately after surgery due to pain or medication errors. Our team will assist you in understanding what is normal and to be expected, as well as what needs to be addressed as soon as possible.
Physical therapy will help you improve your range of motion, strength, and mobility in the weeks leading up to your surgery so that your body is as prepared as possible.

You might even avoid surgery altogether with pre-operative care.

Yes, you read that right!
In some cases, going to physical therapy before surgery can help you get rid of the pain and limitations that drove you to surgery in the first place. Physical therapy has been shown in studies to produce comparable or better results than surgery. Physical therapy treatments are very effective for conditions such as meniscus tears, hip impingement, and shoulder impingement.
If your condition improves significantly after physical therapy, you can postpone or cancel your surgery and discuss your options with your surgeon.

It improves the success rate of your operation.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” as the saying goes. The better you feel prior to surgery, the better you’ll feel afterward. The mental and physical toll that an injury takes on the body can have a negative impact on the outcome of surgery. Preparing ahead of time increases the likelihood of a successful outcome.
Physical therapists are experts in all aspects of health and wellness. Our therapists can talk about how strategies like proper sleep, nutrition, and mentally preparing can help you avoid negative outcomes and maximize your overall recovery!

Pre-hab shortens recovery time.

Getting your body ready can help you recover faster. If you go into surgery with a lot of swelling, a significant range of motion deficits, weakness, and major balance or gait abnormalities, you will have to dig yourself out of a hole before you can begin rehabilitation from the surgery.
Strong muscles, a full range of motion, and no swelling prior to surgery allow you to get back to everyday life much faster. Participating in a pre-surgery rehab program can make your recovery go much more smoothly.
