Post-operative physiotherapy rehabilitation in London, Physio Treatment after surgery at home or at the practice

Following surgery, the operated area will usually be red, swollen and can be very painful. This is a normal reaction to the incisions and procedures used by surgeons. When the symptoms subside, the healing process starts; there’s a gradual return to the normal functioning of tissues which can be enhanced by post-surgery physiotherapy treatment.
