Why online physiotherapy works for post-surgery rehabilitation

Traveling to a clinic after surgery is often the biggest barrier to consistent rehab. Online sessions eliminate this entirely.

Daily supervised sessions accelerate recovery. Online makes daily frequency practical and affordable.

Your physiotherapist monitors surgical site healing, range of motion milestones, and functional progress via video

Caregivers can participate in the session, learning how to support the patient between sessions

Many patients start with homecare (first week or two) then transition to online for the rest of their rehab

What we assess via video

Surgical site observation: swelling, wound healing, skin condition
Range of motion compared to surgical milestones

When in-person care is better

The first few days after major surgery (especially knee or hip replacement) often benefit from hands-on care. Many patients use our homecare service for the initial phase, then transition to online. Your surgeon and physiotherapist will advise on the right time to switch.

Frequently asked questions

When can I start online physiotherapy after surgery?
This depends on your surgery. For knee and hip replacements, many patients transition to online sessions after the first 1 to 2 weeks. For ACL reconstruction, online sessions can begin within the first week. Your surgeon and physiotherapist coordinate on the right timing. Many patients start with homecare and switch to online when they are mobile enough.
How does my physiotherapist check my surgical site via video?
Your physiotherapist will ask you to position the camera to show the surgical area. They can assess swelling, skin color, wound healing progress, and range of motion. While they cannot palpate through video, visual assessment combined with your reported symptoms gives them the clinical information needed to guide your rehab safely.
Can I do online physiotherapy after knee replacement?
Yes. Post-knee replacement rehab is primarily exercise-based: range of motion exercises, quadriceps strengthening, walking practice, and stair training. All of these can be guided effectively via video. Our 21-session Ortho post-op package is designed for this. Your physiotherapist follows established post-replacement protocols and tracks your milestones each session.
My relative had surgery and cannot travel. Can they do online rehab?
Yes. This is one of the most common reasons patients choose online rehabilitation. If the patient has a smartphone or laptop and a caregiver who can assist with camera positioning, they can do guided rehab from home. The caregiver can also participate and learn how to help with exercises between sessions.
