Post-Surgery Rehabilitation in Dubai

Why Post-Surgery Rehabilitation Matters

Surgery is just the first step toward recovery. Without targeted post-surgery physiotherapy, recovery can stall. Stiffness may limit your mobility, muscles can weaken, and you might struggle with daily tasks longer than expected. Our programs are designed to help you bend, walk, and move confidently sooner while reducing risks like re-injury or poor circulation.

Think of it as giving your body the right guidance to heal in the best possible way.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. How soon after surgery can I start physiotherapy?

The timing depends on the type of surgery and your surgeon’s advice. In many cases, gentle physiotherapy can begin within a few days to support circulation and reduce stiffness. We always coordinate your rehab plan with your doctor’s recommendations to ensure safe progress.

2. Is post-surgery physiotherapy painful?

Physiotherapy should not be painful. Some mild discomfort is normal as your body heals and regains movement, but our therapists adjust techniques and exercises to your comfort level and recovery stage.

3. How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions varies based on the surgery, your overall health, and how your body responds to treatment. Some patients see significant improvement in a few weeks, while others may need several months of guided therapy.

4. Can I continue my rehabilitation at home?

Yes. We often design home exercise programs to support your progress between sessions. However, regular in-clinic visits help us monitor your recovery, adjust your plan, and ensure you’re performing exercises correctly and safely.

5. Do I need a doctor’s referral to start physiotherapy?

A referral is not always required, but we recommend consulting your surgeon before beginning post-surgery rehabilitation. Our team can also work closely with your healthcare provider to create a coordinated recovery plan.

6. Can physiotherapy help prevent complications after surgery?

Yes. A structured rehabilitation program reduces the risk of stiffness, poor circulation, muscle weakness, and re-injury. It also helps improve mobility and restore strength more effectively.
