Surgery management involves a comprehensive approach to pre-operative preparation and post-operative rehabilitation. Our services are designed to enhance your recovery process, minimise the risk of complications, and ensure a quicker return to normal activities.

This holistic management includes physical conditioning before surgery to strengthen your body and tailored rehabilitation programs post-surgery to restore function, mobility, and strength.

Our surgery management service is ideal for anyone scheduled for surgery or recently undergoing surgery. Whether you are an athlete aiming to return to your sport or someone who leads an active lifestyle and wishes to regain full mobility, our tailored program can significantly benefit your surgical outcome and recovery process.

Our biokineticists are skilled in managing a variety of surgical cases, particularly those involving:

• Orthopaedic Surgeries: These include ACL reconstruction, meniscus repairs, hip and knee replacements, and shoulder surgeries.
• Cardiac Procedures: Including bypass surgery and valve replacements, where postoperative physical conditioning is crucial.
• Neurological Surgeries: Such as those for spinal cord injuries or brain surgeries that require careful and gradual rehabilitation.
• Abdominal Surgeries: These include surgeries like hernia repairs or post-bariatric surgery, where core strengthening is essential.
• Sports-Related Surgeries: Any surgery resulting from sports injuries, where the goal is to return the athlete to peak performance.

These are just a few examples where biokineticists play a crucial role in managing rehabilitation, ensuring patients regain maximum functionality and quality of life post-surgery.

Pre-surgical conditioning, also known as prehabilitation, involves strengthening and preparing your body for the upcoming surgical procedure. Engaging in a tailored exercise program before surgery can significantly enhance your physical resilience, reduce the risk of complications, and shorten your recovery time.

At Bertie Herbst & Associates, our biokineticists will work with you to develop a conditioning plan that targets the specific areas affected by your surgery, ensuring that you are in the best possible shape going into the operation.

Post-surgical rehabilitation is a critical component of your recovery. After surgery, our biokineticists create personalised rehabilitation plans that focus on gradually restoring your strength, flexibility, and function.

These plans include a variety of therapeutic exercises, manual therapy techniques, and pain management strategies. Our goal is to aid your recovery and enhance your overall performance and well-being, ensuring that you can return to our pre-surgery activities with confidence and success.
