Post-Surgical Rehabilitation at Novar Sports Physio
Recovering from surgery takes more than rest — it takes a plan. At Novar Sports Physio, we provide comprehensive post-surgical rehabilitation to help you regain movement, reduce pain, and safely return to your normal activities.
Our dedicated rehab gym, advanced technology, and evidence-based physiotherapy programs ensure your recovery is targeted, supported, and effective — every step of the way.
What Is Post-Surgical Rehabilitation?
Post-surgical rehabilitation is a structured, physiotherapist-guided program designed to help your body recover after surgery.
Our goal is to help you:
Reduce pain and swelling
Restore movement and flexibility
Rebuild strength and stability
Improve balance and coordination
Safely return to daily life, work, or sport
Whether you’ve had a joint replacement, ligament repair, spinal surgery, or arthroscopy, a well-planned rehab program can make all the difference in your recovery outcomes.
The Role of Physiotherapy in Your Recovery
Our experienced physiotherapists work closely with you (and your surgeon if needed) to create a tailored rehabilitation plan that evolves as you heal.
Physiotherapy helps by:
Managing pain and inflammation using hands-on therapy and gentle movement
Restoring strength and mobility through targeted exercises
Improving function and coordination to regain confidence in movement
Educating you on posture, activity modification, and how to prevent re-injury
This combination of clinical expertise and personal support helps you recover faster and more safely.

Tailored Rehabilitation Programs
Every recovery journey is unique. Your physiotherapist will design a custom plan based on your surgery type, healing stage, and personal goals.

Early-Stage Rehab: Pain management, gentle movement, and circulation exercises to prevent stiffness and complications.
