Hip and Knee Replacement Rehabilitation in Shropshire
Published · 8 min read
Local Physiotherapist — Rebecca Podmore, Shropshire
After a hip or knee replacement, the early weeks at home can feel like a blur of exercises, walking practice, swelling, stairs and trying to work out what is normal. Home physiotherapy helps turn the discharge advice into a plan you can actually use.
What Rebecca can help with
Rebecca can assess walking, transfers, knee or hip movement, strength, swelling, stair technique and how you are managing daily tasks. The session can then focus on the areas that matter most for independence at home.
Walking, stairs and confidence
Rehabilitation often includes gait practice, sit-to-stand work, step-ups, balance exercises, hip and knee strengthening, pacing advice and practice with stairs or outdoor walking when appropriate.
Keeping rehab realistic
Many people are given exercises after surgery but are not sure how hard to push, when to progress, or what to do if swelling increases. Rebecca can help you pace the programme, review technique and adjust the plan around pain, fatigue and daily responsibilities.
