Achilles tendon repair surgery can be vital to a patient’s recovery and return to normal functioning.

Physical therapy after an Achilles repair involves a goal-orientated treatment plan, that is specific to each individual client. The goals of the treatment plan are typical to reduce pain and swelling to improve function and range of motion. Once pain and swelling have reduced it is important to normalize gait and strengthen the muscles of the lower limbs.

Our physiotherapists will also work closely with your surgeon and GP for information on your surgery, but also to keep them informed of your progress as your rehabilitation progresses.

The overarching goal of physical therapy post Achilles repair is to rebuild the strength of your tendon with a specialized and very specific exercise and rehabilitation program, and get your walking and running, and doing all the activities you loved to do before the injury.

Laser Therapy 

Laser therapy involves low-level light (LLLT). Most people find laser therapy comfortable; you may feel some warmth.

Laser therapy is non-invasive. The evidence for it after Achilles surgery is limited, and results vary.
