common questions about acl or knee rehabilitation

How early can I start my rehab after major knee surgery?
It is dependant on the surgery, however after most traditional ACL repair surgeries, we can start rehab within a week of surgery.

How do I start?
Book an Initial Appointment with one of our Physiotherapists. Bring along any scans or surgeon reports and our Physio will take you through a thorough 60 minute session. After this, our Physio will design a rehab program for you based on your current function and your future goals. 

Can I do it online?
Yes, if you are not located in Ballarat, all of our services and rehab programs can be delivered remotely. If you are from out of town, we also package up programs which include a face to face session with our coaches at the RADcentre when it comes to any major testing phases. 

Do you cater for all knee injuries?
 Yes, we cater for all types of knee injuries. Last year alone we helped over 50+ people regain function after a knee injury, ranging from short term to long term injuries.
