What Is Pre & Post-Operative Physiotherapy?

Pre-operative physiotherapy focuses on preparing your body for surgery — improving mobility, strength, and circulation to reduce complications and speed up recovery.

Post-operative physiotherapy, also known as post-surgical rehab, begins after your operation to restore movement, reduce pain and swelling, and rebuild functional strength.

At our London clinics, we combine evidence-based rehab, manual therapy, and personalised training to support your entire surgical journey — before and after.

Why Pre-Op Physiotherapy Matters

Starting physio before your surgery can significantly improve post-surgery outcomes. Our pre-surgery physiotherapy programmes help you:

  • Strengthen key muscles to support the operated area

  • Improve cardiovascular fitness and circulation for faster healing

  • Learn correct movement patterns for your post-surgery exercises

  • Build confidence and reduce anxiety before the procedure

Many clients see shorter hospital stays and smoother recoveries thanks to pre-op physiotherapy.

Expert Post-Surgical Rehab in London

Our post-operative rehabilitation programmes focus on restoring full function safely and efficiently. Your post-op physio plan may include:

  • Pain and swelling management

  • Gentle mobility and flexibility exercises

  • Scar tissue and soft-tissue therapy

  • Progressive strengthening and conditioning

  • Balance, coordination, and movement retraining

We work closely with your surgeon’s recommendations to ensure your post-surgery physiotherapy complements your overall medical care.

Our Specialist Pre & Post Surgery Physiotherapy Pathway

At One Body LDN, our award-winning physiotherapists deliver expert, hands-on care trusted by athletes and professionals across the city.

We’re recognised as a leading post-surgical rehab clinic in London, specialising in bespoke and consultant-guided physiotherapy that helps you recover fast, move better, and perform at your best.

Our proven physio team combines advanced manual therapy, deep tissue massage, and corrective exercise to get you pain-free and feeling amazing instantly.

Assessment & Planning

Every journey begins with a detailed consultation to understand your condition, surgery type, and recovery goals. Your physiotherapist will assess your movement, flexibility, and strength to identify any imbalances or areas that need extra support.

Whether you’re preparing for surgery or have just come out of theatre, we create a personalised pre- or post-operative physiotherapy plan designed around your needs and your surgeon’s recommendations. This stage sets the foundation for safe, effective recovery and helps you feel confident from day one.

Early Stage Rehab

During the early recovery phase, our focus is on mobility restoration and pain control. Your physiotherapist will use a combination of gentle manual therapy, guided movement, and targeted activation exercises to reduce swelling, protect the surgical site, and restore natural motion.

We’ll also introduce breathing, circulation, and stability exercises to prevent stiffness and promote healing. Every post-surgical rehab session is carefully monitored to ensure progress while keeping you comfortable and safe.

Strength, Performance & Prevention

Once your pain and mobility have improved, we progress to the advanced post-op physio phase — rebuilding full strength, balance, and endurance.

You’ll perform personalised exercises designed to restore functional movement, enhance performance, and reduce the risk of future injuries.

Using the Physitrack app, you’ll follow a structured programme with video guidance and progress tracking to keep you accountable beyond the clinic. This final stage ensures long-term success — helping you return to sport, work, and daily life feeling stronger than ever.

Pre & Post-Operative Physio FAQs

Yes. Pre-surgery physiotherapy helps strengthen muscles, improve flexibility, and prepare your body for the procedure — giving you the best possible outcome afterwards. By starting early, our pre-operative physiotherapy programmes improve circulation, reduce surgical risks, and make your post-surgery recovery faster and smoother.

You can usually begin post-surgical rehab within a few days, once your surgeon or consultant approves. Early post-operative physiotherapy is proven to reduce stiffness, improve mobility, and prevent complications such as scar tissue formation. Our London physiotherapists work closely with your medical team to ensure your recovery is safe and effective from day one.

Your post-op physiotherapy will include a mix of gentle mobility work, soft-tissue therapy, and progressive strengthening exercises — all tailored to your operation type and stage of recovery. As you progress, sessions may also include balance, coordination, and functional retraining to help you return to normal activity with full confidence.

Absolutely. Our London post-operative physiotherapy clinic is recognised by all major insurers including AXA, Bupa, Cigna, WPA, and Vitality. You can use your policy for both pre-surgery physiotherapy and post-surgical rehab sessions. Learn more about claiming at our Private Health Insurance page.

The length of your post-surgical rehab depends on the procedure and your individual recovery. Most clients benefit from a 6–12 week programme of post-op physio and strengthening work, though complex surgeries may require longer-term rehabilitation. Your physiotherapist will guide you with clear milestones at every stage.

Yes. Our London physiotherapy clinics provide tailored pre and post-operative rehabilitation for all major orthopaedic and sports surgeries — including joint replacements, ligament repairs, spinal surgery, and tendon procedures. Each programme is personalised to your operation, activity level, and long-term goals.

Post-operative rehabilitation helps you recover safely, regain mobility faster, and rebuild confidence after surgery. It reduces swelling and stiffness, restores function, prevents muscle weakness, and helps you return to work or sport faster. Our evidence-based post-surgical rehab programmes are designed to optimise every stage of your healing process.

In most cases, yes — under guidance. Your post-op physio will include gentle activation and safe exercises that help you maintain circulation and strength without stressing the surgical area. We’ll guide you step-by-step so you recover while staying as active as your condition allows.

Yes. Our physiotherapists regularly communicate with your consultant or surgeon to ensure seamless continuity of care. Your post-surgery physiotherapy plan is aligned with their recommendations to guarantee a safe, progressive recovery.

Everyone heals differently, but most people notice meaningful improvements in strength, mobility, and comfort within 4–8 weeks of starting post-surgical rehab. With consistent post-op physiotherapy, we help you reach full function — not just recovery — as soon as safely possible.
