Pre & Post Surgical Rehabilitation
Recover faster and move better with expert Pre and Post Surgical Rehabilitation at Peak Physio in Miramar, Wellington.
Why Pre & Post Surgical Physiotherapy Matters?
Surgery is just one part of your recovery. How well you prepare beforehand — and how effectively you rehabilitate afterward — has a significant impact on your healing time, mobility, strength, and long-term function. At Peak Physio, your rehabilitation programme is tailored to your condition, goals, and timeline, giving you the best possible outcome.
Pre-Surgical Physiotherapy (Prehab)
Starting physiotherapy before your surgery can make a real difference to your recovery. Our Wellington physiotherapists work with you to improve joint mobility and muscle strength, reduce pain and inflammation, and build the physical foundation your body needs to heal effectively post-surgery. We'll also walk you through what to expect after your procedure so you go in feeling prepared and confident.
Once your surgery is complete, we support your safe and structured recovery in close alignment with your surgeon's protocols. Your customised post-op rehab plan may include pain and swelling management, gentle mobilisation and range of motion work, strength and balance training, gait retraining and walking support, and functional exercises for return to work, home, or sport. Progress is tracked and treatment is regularly reassessed to keep your recovery on track.
