Exercise 4 Pre & Post Operations

4 Life Exercise Physiology works closely with Orthopaedic Surgeons and our Exercise Physiologists are specialists in providing pre-hab and re-hab exercises for many orthopaedic surgeries.

These include, but are not limited to:

  • Total Knee Replacement
  • Total Hip Replacement
  • Total Shoulder Replacement
  • Knee Arthroscopic Surgery (Key hole surgery)
  • ACL Knee Reconstruction
  • Ankle Stabilisation Surgery
  • Rotator Cuff Repair
  • Shoulder Arthroscopic Surgery (Key hole surgery)

We also regularly see a number of patients who have undergone spinal surgery completed by either orthopaedic or neurological specialists including:

  • Spinal Fusion Surgery
  • Disc Replacement Surgery
  • Discectomy or Microdiscectomy
  • Foraminotomy

The goal of all of our prehab and rehab programs is to improve range of motion, aid in muscle recovery, improve strength and function, reduce recovery times, and decrease pain.  Don’t trust the recovery of your surgery to anyone, trust the team at 4 Life Exercise Physiology to guide you through this very important aspect of your rehabilitation.

Research has proven that completing a six week prehab exercise program prior to surgery significantly reduces recovery time and improves outcomes.
