Building Stronger Bodies post Injury or Surgery At TPM
Have you recently had Surgery?
Unfortunately the success of your recent surgery doesn’t finish when you leave the operating theatre.

At The Physio Movement we have the knowledge, experience and exceptional facilities to maximise your post surgical rehabilitation of your patients.

The Age Old Philosophy:
At The Physio Movement we adhere to the age-old philosophy that ‘prevention is better than cure’ or as we say ‘pre-habilitation is better than rehabilitation’, in other words we will do everything to help you avoid surgery. At TPM we see a lot of patients present with injury from:
- Doing too much too fast.
- Poor recovery between sessions.
- Doing the wrong exercises with poor form.
- Completing high-end exercise techniques when a solid foundation hasn’t been established e.g. ‘walking before they can crawl’.
- Not taking a whole body approach e.g. just doing upper body weights.
- Doing plyometric, high intensity based exercises when the body isn’t ready e.g. cross fit style workouts.
TPM believes many of these injuries are preventable with efficient musculoskeletal screening and injury prevention programs offered from our Physiotherapists, Exercise Physiologists, Chiropractors and Podiatrist.
These programs take advantage of our advanced Biomechanical analysis tools and tests to ensure the right person gets the right exercises.
