Orthopaedic Rehabilitation
What Is Orthopaedic Rehabilitation?
Orthopaedic rehabilitation is a field of physiotherapy concerned with assessing conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system and addressing them through individualised programmes. It covers problems affecting bone, joint, muscle, tendon and ligament tissue, and supports the recovery of function, movement and daily-life activities after an injury, surgery or a long-standing condition.
The aim is to contribute to pain management, work towards regaining movement and strength, and support improved function.
When Is It Used?
Orthopaedic rehabilitation may be applied, after a clinical assessment, in the following situations:
Musculoskeletal Pain
Sports and Daily-Life Injuries
The Post-Surgical Period
For example, following joint, ligament or tendon procedures.
Posture and Movement-Related Complaints
The programme is tailored to your condition, goals and general health history.
Which Approaches Are Used?
The programme usually combines several approaches: an individualised exercise programme, manual therapy techniques, clinical reformer Pilates , movement and posture education, and guidance for daily life. The combination of approaches is determined by the clinical assessment and your goals.
Assessment and Process
The process begins with an assessment and proceeds with an individualised plan.
Clinical Assessment
The process begins with a detailed clinical assessment, covering your history, observation, and movement and function analysis.
Individualised Plan
An individualised plan and goals are created based on the findings.
Follow-Up and Updates
The process is reviewed regularly and, where needed, updated in coordination with the relevant physician. In post-surgical cases, the process is carried out in line with the physician's guidance.
