🌸 **Preparing for Gynaecological Surgery? Recovering Afterwards? Physiotherapy Can Help.** 🌸
Many women are unaware that physiotherapy can play a vital role both **before and after gynaecological surgery**.
Whether you're having surgery for prolapse, endometriosis, hysterectomy, fibroids, incontinence, or other pelvic health conditions, physiotherapy can help optimise your recovery and improve long-term outcomes.
✅ **Before Surgery (Prehabilitation)**
Physiotherapy can help you:
• Strengthen your pelvic floor and core muscles
• Improve fitness and mobility before surgery
• Learn breathing and recovery techniques
• Understand how to safely move and exercise after your procedure
• Build confidence and reduce anxiety about surgery
✅ **After Surgery (Rehabilitation)**
Physiotherapy can support:
• Safe return to daily activities and exercise
• Pelvic floor rehabilitation
• Scar tissue management
• Management of pain and discomfort
• Bladder and bowel function recovery
• Improved posture, strength, and overall wellbeing
Early guidance and a tailored rehabilitation programme can make a significant difference to your recovery journey.
At SU Women's Health Physiotherapy & Wellness, we provide specialist assessment and personalised treatment plans to support women through every stage of their surgical journey.
