Your treatment journey

1. How often will I need physiotherapy?

• It depends on the physiotherapist’s assessment, the rehabilitation plan, and your personal goals and possibilities.
• Usually, in the beginning (first month), sessions are more frequent (1–2 times per week). Later, as you gain confidence and progress is noticeable, sessions may become less frequent (once every 1–2 weeks), with home or gym exercises performed in between.

2. Will I have home exercises between sessions?

• Yes, most of the time the physiotherapist will prepare a personalized home exercise program adapted to your condition, abilities, and daily routine.
• The exercises are designed to be realistic, not too complicated or time-consuming.
• In fact, consistent home exercises often bring the greatest part of the results.

3. How quickly can I expect improvement?

• Every person responds differently, but many patients notice changes already after the first session. In most cases, progress can be felt within the first two weeks.

4. Can physiotherapy replace surgery or medication?

• Physiotherapy cannot always fully replace surgery or medication, but in many cases it can help avoid invasive procedures or reduce the need for medication.
• It can relieve pain, improve mobility, and strengthen muscles, which often allows patients to postpone or even avoid surgery.
• Physiotherapy can also help reduce the required dosage of pain medication.
• However, there are situations where surgery or medication is necessary – in such cases, physiotherapy serves as complementary care to improve treatment outcomes and recovery.
