Rehabilitation &
Recovery
You have had surgery or are due for surgery. No worries, we are going to make sure you get the best guidance. We are going to teach you exactly what to do and what not to do and make sure that you will soon be able to do everything the way you were used to before.
What does rehabilitation look like with us?
Our practice specializes in (intensive) rehabilitation pathways. That means we can guide you from start to finish. This may begin even before you have had surgery, for example. Every course is customized, meaning that your situation and your goals determine what the course will look like.
So we begin by jointly creating a plan for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at which specialists can help you (physical therapist, exercise therapist, manual therapist) and which type of rehabilitation suits you. During rehabilitation, we adjust this plan as needed. So that we always stay focused on your goals and your health.
What rehabilitations can we help you with?
These are intensive surgeries, after which we will work with you to rehabilitate you to return to daily activities without symptoms.
But we can also help you even before the surgery is performed. So you can prepare for surgery with us. This not only means that we tell you what to expect, but we can already start working to prepare you physically for the surgery as well.
Through targeted exercise/training even before surgery, we can speed up your recovery after surgery.
This is how our care process works
Phase 1
First 4 to 6 weeks
It is important to get moving again soon after surgery, this will keep the muscles supple and mobile. In the first weeks after surgery, we focus on pain management, reducing swelling and restoring the mobility of your hip. You will walk with crutches during this period.
Phase 2
After 6 weeks
Of course, your recovery after surgery is not only dependent on rehabilitation. The condition of the joint and the structures surrounding it, strongly influence the outcome. We therefore do exercises to improve overall muscle strength and fitness and increase mobility. Good running posture is important here.
Phase 3
Return to normal life, work and sport
When muscle strength and mobility are high enough, you should be able to do as much as possible by yourself again. Think of everyday things like walking, cycling, personal care and housework. Even sports can resume, if you are in good shape.
