Is this program right for you?.

The short answer is YES, if you are:

  • Planning or have had a total knee replacement (from around 2 weeks post-op and beyond).
  • Looking for guidance from an experienced allied health team (Physiotherapists and/or Accredited Exercise Physiologists).
  • Wanting the certainty of a program backed by evidence in a convenient single location.
  • Want a personalised program (no "one-size-fits-all" approach).
  • Want to improve movement, confidence and strength to get back to doing the things you love.

Evidence-Based Programs

What is the evidence for therapy post surgery?

Evidence shows structured physiotherapy is essential after total knee replacement, with strengthening and range-of-motion exercises (including knee straightening) improving function and mobility, especially in the first 6-12 weeks.

Progressive resistance training further enhances strength and walking ability, while hydrotherapy improves mobility and knee movement compared to land-based rehab alone.

Services may attract a rebate from Private Health, or Medicare with an appropriate referral.
