Pre and post-op rehab in Stellenbosch
Go into surgery as strong as you can, then come back with a clear plan for every stage after it.
If the operation is booked, the weeks before it still count. A bit more strength and a clearer idea of the exercises ahead usually means a less frightening first fortnight afterwards.
Afterwards the programme follows the surgeon’s precautions, then quietly outruns them: walk, load, stairs, work, sport. The stair lift is there for the days the flight of stairs is the problem, not a personality test.

Before you book
- When can I start after surgery?
- As soon as your surgeon is happy for you to begin active rehab. Bring the op notes and any protocol you were given — we work inside those limits, then progress them.
- Do I need to climb the stairs to the practice?
- No. There is a stair lift. Plenty of people use it after a hip or knee replacement until the stairs are the exercise, not the obstacle.
