Post-surgical rehabilitation is critical to successfully recovering from many major operations, including cardiac, thoracic, orthopaedic, brain, and abdominal surgery.

While the exact nature of surgical rehabilitation varies depending on the patient’s needs, it typically includes a mix of physiotherapy, soft tissue massage, chiropractic treatments, and gentle exercises intended to improve strength, balance, and flexibility. In some cases, complementary therapies, such as acupuncture may also be recommended to assist in healing.

Postoperative rehabilitation significantly reduces pain and stiffness while restoring mobility, allowing patients to resume their normal activities more quickly after surgery.
