Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation

A prosthesis alone is only part of recovery. Our Amputee Specialist Physiotherapists help patients regain mobility, strength, and independence through personalised rehabilitation plans.

Our Goal

To help you achieve functional independence and return to meaningful daily activities, hobbies, or sports after amputation.

Our amputee specialists help through:

  • Pre-prosthetic Care
    Provide care before a prosthetic limb is fitted, including exercises to maintain range of motion, build strength, and manage swelling and pain in the residual limb.
  • Prosthetic Training
    Teach patients how to effectively use prosthetic limbs, including complex components and gait training to improve walking and mobility with a prosthesis.
  • Strength and Flexibility
    Implement strength and conditioning programs to build muscle strength in targeted areas and improve overall flexibility.
  • Balance and Coordination
    Develop strategies and exercises to improve balance and coordination, which are crucial for functional independence.
  • Pain Management
    Use techniques such as manual therapy, TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation), and desensitisation to manage residual limb pain and phantom limb pain.
  • Multidisciplinary Collaboration
    Work closely with prosthetists to ensure proper prosthetic fit and collaborate with other healthcare professionals, such as psychologists and social workers, to provide holistic care.
  • Personalised Rehabilitation Plans
    Create tailored treatment plans that consider the patient's specific needs, goals, and lifestyle to promote independence and improve their quality of life.
