RECOVER FROM INJURY OR SURGERY

Following an injury, surgery, or prolonged illness, it’s common to experience loss of muscle mass, reduced joint mobility, fatigue, and loss of confidence in movement. Even short periods of inactivity can lead to deconditioning, where muscles weaken, posture changes, and movement patterns become inefficient or painful.

This often creates a cycle where people avoid movement, leading to further physical decline or compensation in other areas of the body. For example, walking differently after a knee injury can lead to hip or back pain over time.

Exercise Physiology focuses on restoring movement patterns, joint range of motion and functional strength through a structured, progressive program. Whether you’re recovering from a joint replacement, tendon repair, broken bone, cancer treatment, or a long hospital stay, your Exercise Physiologist will tailor your rehabilitation to your condition, stage of healing and daily goals. Programs begin gently and build over time to support long-term recovery, resilience and independence
