Are You Facing a Knee Replacement? Get Ready with Our Tailored Prehab Program!
If you’ve been told that you need a knee replacement, you may be wondering how to prepare for the surgery and what steps you can take to ensure a smoother recovery. That’s where our 3-month tailored prehab program comes in!
Our program isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Each plan is individualised to suit your specific needs, ensuring that you’re getting the exact support required to optimise your strength and mobility before your surgery.
Why is Prehab Important?
Engaging in regular exercise therapy prior to your knee replacement can make a significant difference in your post-operative recovery. Strengthening the muscles around your knee joint before surgery helps improve your outcomes, making it easier to regain function and mobility after your procedure. If there’s a wait for your surgery, why not make the most of that time by optimising your strength as much as possible?
In addition to improving recovery, prehab can help with pain management during the wait. By staying active, you can manage discomfort, enhance your mobility, and maintain your ability to perform daily activities—ultimately making the process of waiting for surgery a bit easier on your body and mind.
What’s Included in the Program?
- 60-minute initial consultation with one of our Accredited Exercise Physiologists to assess your current condition.
- An individualised exercise program designed just for you, to be followed over 3 months, tailored to your current strength and mobility levels.
- 4 x 30-minute consults within the 3-month program to ensure you’re staying on track and progressing.
- Access to our clinic’s equipment between your scheduled appointments so you can continue your exercises and make steady progress.
- Group exercise class opportunities, if this aligns with your treatment plan.
- 60-minute final assessment and planning session at the end of the program to review your progress and set goals for the post-surgery phase.
