Frequently Asked Questions About Post-Surgical Physiotherapy in Langley BC:
How long and how often will I need to attend physiotherapy sessions?
The duration and frequency of post-surgical physiotherapy varies significantly from person to person, depending on multiple factors including the type of surgery performed, your pre-operative fitness level, age, overall health status, previous mobility limitations, baseline strength, pain tolerance, post-operative swelling, and individual healing capacity. Our physiotherapists will assess your specific situation and develop a customized treatment schedule that optimizes your recovery while respecting your body’s healing timeline.
Do I need a referral from my surgeon to begin physiotherapy?
Typically, no formal referral is required to begin physiotherapy treatment in British Columbia. However, your surgeon may provide specific clearance to initiate physiotherapy after surgery and offer important guidelines regarding precautions, weight-bearing restrictions, or movement limitations that our physiotherapists will incorporate into your treatment plan to ensure safe, effective rehabilitation.
