Who this is for

You are home after a knee replacement, a hip replacement or shoulder surgery, and your surgeon said to start physio. Doing the hospital exercise sheet alone can feel unsure.

A registered physiotherapist follows your surgeon's advice, shows you what to do, and checks your progress at each visit, so you know what comes next.

Questions before you book

How soon after surgery should I start?

Follow your surgeon's advice. Call us when you know when to start and we will plan your first visit.

I have the hospital exercise sheet. Do I still need physio?

Many surgeons ask for physio as well. Your physiotherapist checks that you are doing the exercises safely and moves you forward when you are ready.

Do I need a referral?

In Ontario you can usually book physio without one. Some plans ask for a doctor's note, so check your plan.
