About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
When can I start aquatic rehabilitation after surgery?
The program is usually started after wound healing is complete and your surgeon approves; timing depends on your surgery type.
Is it safe to enter water before the wound is fully healed?
No; aquatic rehabilitation is started after wound healing is complete.
Does aquatic rehabilitation replace land-based physical therapy?
Aquatic rehabilitation complements land-based therapy; gains are transferred to function with a land-transition program.
Why is the underwater treadmill preferred in the early period?
Because body weight is reduced via water level, a correct gait pattern is restored early with low joint load.
How long does the program take after joint replacement?
The duration is personal and varies by your healing stage; the average program duration is shared at your first assessment.
When and how is the transition to land made?
After load progression and progress measurement, in-water gains are gradually transferred to function on land.
In which cases is aquatic rehabilitation postponed?
The program may be postponed when wound healing is incomplete or your surgeon’s protocol does not allow it.
How does the process work for patients coming from abroad?
International patients receive visa, transfer, accommodation and medical interpreter support; the process begins with file sharing.
