Post Operative Rehabilitation

Move better. Recover stronger. Live pain-free.

Physiotherapy at InSync Health combines hands-on treatment with evidence-based rehabilitation to help you recover from pain, improve your movement, and get back to the activities you love.
Our team of physiotherapists in Marrickville treat everything from sports injuries and acute pain to long-term conditions, complex cases and post-operative recovery.

Post Operative Rehabilitation

Post-operative rehabilitation helps restore movement, strength, and confidence following orthopaedic surgery. At InSync Health, our goal is to support every stage of your recovery — whether you’re preparing for surgery (pre-operative rehab) or rebuilding function afterward.

Physiotherapy may also be used as a conservative approach before surgery is considered, in collaboration with your surgeon. Often, we have helped people avoid surgery or put it off to years later.

Who This Is For

Post-operative rehabilitation may be ideal if you:

  • Are preparing for an upcoming surgery
  • Have recently undergone orthopaedic surgery
  • Are returning to movement after a period of rest or immobilisation
  • Want guidance rebuilding strength and function safely

What Treatment May Involve

All rehabilitation is tailored to your surgery, stage of healing, and goals:

  • Pain and swelling management
  • Restoring joint movement and mobility
  • Strength and muscle retraining
  • Gradual return to work, daily life, or sport

We work closely with your surgeon’s post-op guidelines to ensure a safe, progressive recovery.

How It Supports Recovery

Physiotherapy helps to:

  • Protect the surgical site in early recovery
  • Regain movement after immobilisation
  • Rebuild strength and control
  • Support a confident return to activity

InSync Insight
Surgery fixes the structure — rehab brings your body back to life. A successful outcome relies on restoring how you move, not just what was repaired. This is also a great opportunity to re-build yourself stronger than before.

Common Surgeries We Support

  • ACL and rotator cuff reconstruction
  • Spinal surgery (i.e. laminectomy, fusion)
  • Total knee and Total hip replacements
  • Joint debridement (“clean-out”) procedures i.e. Menisectomy 
  • Fracture repairs with plates or screws, called ORIF’s (open reduction internal fixation)
  • Postnatal pelvic floor recovery
