Pre & Post Operative Care

We offer first class pre and post operative rehab at Resilient Rehab, we have used the best available evidence and put together a physiotherapist led unique pre and post operative care plan.

WHAT IS Pre-operative Rehab?

You may not have heard of ‘pre-operative rehab’ but this is a type of rehabilitation we use in physiotherapy for individuals who are currently injured awaiting surgery.

What to expect in your pre-op rehab appointment?

You may not have heard of ‘pre-operative rehab’ but this is a type of rehabilitation we use in physiotherapy for individuals who are currently injured awaiting surgery.

We use an individualised plan to strengthen the injured area safely and all of the surrounding muscles, this has been shown in numerous studies to give you the best, safest and quickest recovery time after your operation. If the area is the strongest it can be before the operation the amount of strength loss and time to get it back is greatly reduced.

WHAT IS Post-operative Rehab?

We incorporate hands on techniques to gain full mobility as quickly as possible, and reduce pain whilst giving you a full comprehensive rehabilitation plan. Our plans normally involve targeted mobility/ flexibility exercises, and a gradual loaded strengthening/ proprioception programme not only for the injured area but full body to ensure you’re as resilient as you were post injury.

What to expect in your post-op rehab appointment?

We incorporate hands on techniques to gain full mobility as quickly as possible, and reduce pain whilst giving you a full comprehensive rehabilitation plan. Our plans normally involve targeted mobility/ flexibility exercises, and a gradual loaded strengthening/ proprioception programme not only for the injured area but full body to ensure you’re as resilient as you were post injury.

For the keen sports people we treat, you will have to meet certain criteria during your physiotherapist led rehabilitation programme. This will allow us to safely progress your programme to incorporate strength/ power/ endurance as well as some sports specific drills. We always follow a standardised protocol to minimise the chances of any set backs in your recovery. Even after full recovery and return to your normal activities we will always be in close contact with you to give you the expert support you need.

I was recommended to see Daniel by my GP when I injured my knee and became unable to run. Daniel McGookin handled my case at the clinic and he was fantastic, both in the diagnosis as well as treatment! He taught me some really easy exercises that wouldn’t stress my knee out further, and over a few months, helped rehabilitate it back to painlessness πŸ™‚

– Kuvanney P

Daniel McGookin provided really good support throughout the 3 weeks of physio sessions. Great selection of take-home exercises and advice that helped me recover and get back to playing sport a good week before I thought I’d be able to. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for top quality treatment.

– Micheal B

I visited Dan McGookin for physio and I highly recommend him. I had pulled a tiny muscle in my lower back that left me extremely limited on movement. Dan helped to restore movement, explained exactly what happened and how to avoid it happening again and also would show me various exercises to help strengthen the area.

– Maria P

I went to see Dan with an arm/shoulder issue which was bothering me for a few months. After having 6 sessions of physio with Dan, I have seen significant improvement in both my arm and shoulders. Dan is extremely professional, experienced and friendly. I would highly recommend seeing Dan – you will be in good hands!

– Marissa A

I had physiotherapy sessions with Daniel McGookin due to sports injury and his treatments were fantastic. He knows what the problem was and carried out appropriate treatment. Definitely recommended!

Very effective treatment! I saw Daniel McGookin as I had neck pain and pins and needles along my arm. I saw improvement after the very first session. I would recommend this to anyone in need of Physiotherapy. 5 stars all around!

– Christelle E

​Daniel has been a great help with my lower back pain – I’ve been to other clinics previously and it took 7-10 sessions to get where I have in 3 with Dan. He keeps everything simple and understandable. Couldn’t recommend him enough.

– Adam M

I saw Daniel McGookin for a knee injury. He was super friendly and helpful, and recommended a very comprehensive exercise regime that changed every week. I was back to running again after far less time than I had imagined.

– Hanna K

Great service from my physio Daniel McGookin, saw huge improvements from my starting point and provided me with a prevention plan for future. I was also impressed that he was right at the end of an email/phone if I had any questions or issues – fab customer service and would definitely recommend!

– Alice P

I have been seeing Daniel for a couple of months now for plantar fasciitis and achilles tendonitis and the service I have received has been amazing. Daniel is incredibly knowledgeable and professional and my pain has reduced dramatically after only a few sessions. I would recommend Daniel to everyone.

– Jenny C

Daniel McGookin looked after me when my shoulder had been causing me chronic pain for 6 months. Within 3 weeks the pain had completely subsided and 2 months on I am back to full strength. I cannot recommend Daniel enough – a superb physio.
