After surgery, it’s normal to feel nervous about moving again. You might wonder: Am I doing too much? Could I hurt myself? What’s the right way to rebuild strength? At the same time, sitting still too long can slow down recovery and make you feel stuck. It’s confusing, and you don’t want to take risks with your health.
The good news is you don’t have to figure it out alone. There are professionals trained to help people exercise safely after surgery. They understand how the body heals, what movements are safe, and how to design a step-by-step plan just for you.
This is where an Exercise Physiologist comes in. While the name might sound technical, our role is simple: to use exercise as medicine. Whether you’ve had joint surgery, heart surgery, or another procedure, I can help you move again with confidence. I will look at your medical history, listen to your concerns, and then create a tailored plan that balances safety and progress.
Imagine feeling stronger week by week, knowing every movement has been chosen to support your healing. Instead of guessing, you can trust that your exercise plan is backed by science and guided by someone who has worked with people in your exact situation.
Recovery doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. With the right support, exercise becomes less scary and more empowering—you’ll know exactly what to do, when to do it, and how to measure your progress.
If you’re ready to take the next step in your recovery and get back to doing the things you love, book an Exercise Physiology session today. Safe movement is the key to healing, and the sooner you start, the sooner you’ll feel like yourself again.
