Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Post-surgical rehabilitation provides structured, phased physiotherapy after orthopaedic surgery to help you heal safely and return to the life you enjoy. At Alnoor Clinic, Dr Nimra Kiran, Physiotherapist and Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT), GCUF, follows your surgeon’s guidance and progresses your programme step by step — restoring strength, mobility, and function without rushing your recovery.
How It Works
- Early-phase care: Gentle techniques protect the surgical site while easing pain and swelling.
- Mobility restoration: Guided movement gradually restores joint range and flexibility.
- Strength rebuilding: Progressive exercises rebuild the muscles supporting the operated area.
- Functional return: Training focuses on the activities that matter to you — walking, work, and sport.

FAQs
When should I start physiotherapy after surgery?
Timing depends on your operation and your surgeon’s advice — some programmes begin within days, others after a few weeks. Please bring your discharge notes to your first visit.
Will you coordinate with my surgeon?
Yes — your rehabilitation follows your surgeon’s protocol, and we are happy to liaise with your medical team about your progress.
How long does rehabilitation take?
It varies with the procedure and your goals. Your physiotherapist will outline a realistic timeline after your first assessment.
