Rehab Before & After Surgery
From prehab before your operation to structured aftercare: ACL, hip and knee replacement — with measurable milestones.
Whether you are preparing for surgery or have just left the clinic: we follow the aftercare protocol of your operating clinic, build up loading phase by phase and measure your progress objectively — so decisions are based on data, not on the calendar. Where useful, we start before the operation («prehab»), which can support a shorter rehab afterwards.
Our post-surgery rehab programmes
- Joint Replacement Rehab — structured aftercare following a total hip or knee replacement
- ACL Rehab — four phases over nine months, data-based return to sport
- Meniscus Rehab — after meniscus repair, partial meniscectomy or transplantation
- Rotator Cuff Surgery Rehab — after rotator cuff repair or SLAP repair
- Shoulder Stabilisation (Bankart) Rehab — after Bankart repair or Latarjet
- Hip Arthroscopy Rehab — after FAI correction or labral repair
- Achilles Tendon Surgery Rehab — after Achilles tendon repair
- MPFL Reconstruction Rehab — after surgery for patellar dislocation
Costs and insurance
With a doctor’s prescription, basic health insurance (KVG) covers 9 sessions of 30 minutes; follow-up prescriptions are common after surgery, and we coordinate them with your referring doctor. After a documented sports accident, Swiss accident insurance (UVG) typically covers 100% of the treatment costs — no prescription needed. We clarify the registration with your insurer directly.
First appointment within 48 hours
We typically offer a first appointment within 48 hours at both locations — Kloten and Zurich West. A first session can often be arranged before you are discharged from the clinic, so the transition into outpatient rehab is seamless. You can also find our conservative treatment for sports injuries and an overview of our treatment methods.
