Are you due to have a total hip replacement (THR) or a total knee replacement (TKR) soon? Then we know exactly how to help. Having undergone surgery places significant demands on your body. You’ll need the necessary strength and stamina to recover properly.

What does the rehabilitation programme at FRISKFYSIO Amstelveen involve?

We begin the rehabilitation programme with an initial assessment, so that we can gain a better understanding of your symptoms. Based on this initial assessment, we adopt a multidisciplinary approach. We work together with other disciplines, such as occupational therapists, rehabilitation doctors, psychologists or rehabilitation physiotherapists, to draw up a treatment plan for you. This treatment plan is entirely bespoke, ensuring your recovery proceeds as efficiently as possible. We ensure that your rehabilitation is carried out in accordance with the most up-to-date protocols.

 

Based on the treatment plan, we will start improving your mobility, coordination, strength building, gait pattern and fitness. The course will largely consist of exercise therapy, in the form of training.

What does rehabilitation at FRISKFYSIO Amstelveen involve following a knee replacement?

The moment you have undergone surgery on your knee, we begin the rehabilitation process. The aim here is to regain your joint's range of motion and strengthen the surrounding muscles. It is important to build muscle strength so that your joint is adequately supported.

What does rehabilitation at FRISKFYSIO Amstelveen involve following a hip replacement?

The most common reason for placing a new hip is osteoarthritis. Before your operation, it is important to keep moving well. This will ensure that you stay in good shape. This will help you recover faster after surgery. Have you just had hip surgery? Then we will start the rehabilitation process immediately afterwards.
