Post op pain management: Addressing post-operative pain is a priority. Medications and self-management strategies can help manage discomfort while ensuring mobility and function are not compromised.

Patient Education: You'll receive guidance on how to manage daily activities, pain, and any restrictions. This education empowers you to take an active role in your recovery.

Mobility and Functionality: We work with you to regain mobility, strength, and functionality. Exercises and movements are tailored to your surgery type and individual needs.

Range of Motion: Specific exercises and stretches are prescribed to restore your range of motion. This is particularly important for surgeries involving joints or soft tissues.

Gradual Progression: Rehab physiotherapy is a progressive process. As you heal, your exercise and therapy routines will evolve to challenge your abilities safely.

Jenny was my Physio at Home following a knee replacement, visiting twice per week for four weeks. What a blessing!

Jenny used her expertise to provide support, treatment and advice to rehabilitate my knee allowing me to have an excellent outcome rapidly improving my mobility and reducing pain.

Anne M

I had the best care from Jenny following my hip replacement. Jenny was very professional, kind and caring. She helped me with my rehabilitation and I trusted her suggestions even when I thought I couldn’t do it. I would absolutely recommend Jenny, and am so glad I found her.

Carolyne D

After a bulging disc cancelled my plan to pursue a new love of running swimming was the go - something I’ve never taken seriously and had no idea where to start in terms of expectations and pace etc. Jenny was recommended by several locals and was an absolute pleasure to meet at the pool to get a few pointers from for technique and exercises to build up my ability/stamina. I wouldn’t have known where to start and she put me totally at ease. Thanks so much Jenny!
