In-house Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation in Ludhiana
- Post-operative rehabilitation after joint replacement - knee, hip, shoulder

- Sports injury rehabilitation - ligament, tendon, and muscle recovery
- Chronic pain and musculoskeletal physiotherapy
- Neurological physiotherapy - for patients with mobility challenges following illness or injury
- Pre-operative physiotherapy - optimising strength and fitness before planned surgery
Having physiotherapy within the same hospital as orthopaedic surgery means communication between surgical and rehabilitation teams is immediate and continuous - adjustments to the rehabilitation plan can be made quickly if a patient's recovery requires it. Hunjan Hospital is NABH pre-accredited and accepts cashless treatment through more than 100 insurance providers.
Our Approach to Rehabilitation
Effective rehabilitation is not a single programme applied uniformly - it is a structured, evidence-based process that evolves as the patient progresses. At Hunjan Hospital, each patient's rehabilitation begins with a functional assessment that establishes their current level of movement, strength, pain, and confidence. Goals are set collaboratively with the patient so that the programme is aligned with what matters most to them, whether that is walking without pain, returning to a specific sport, or managing independently at home.
Early rehabilitation focuses on pain control, reducing swelling, restoring range of movement, and preventing complications from immobility. As recovery progresses, the emphasis shifts to rebuilding strength, improving balance and proprioception, and retraining functional movement patterns. For post-surgical patients, progression through each phase is guided by the operating surgeon's protocol and the patient's clinical response.
Who Benefits from Physiotherapy at Hunjan Hospital?
Physiotherapy and rehabilitation at Hunjan Hospital is appropriate for a wide range of patients. You may benefit from a structured programme if you are:
- Recovering from joint replacement surgery - knee, hip, or shoulder
- Healing from a fracture and working to regain full movement and strength
- Managing a sports injury - ligament sprain, muscle tear, or tendon problem
- Living with chronic joint pain or arthritis that limits daily activity
- Preparing for planned orthopaedic surgery and wanting to optimise your fitness beforehand
- Experiencing back or neck pain causing stiffness or referred limb symptoms
- Returning to sport or physical work after an orthopaedic procedure
Typical Rehabilitation Pathway After Joint Replacement
Post-operative rehabilitation is structured in phases, with each phase building on the progress achieved in the previous one. The timeline below reflects a general pathway - individual programmes may vary.
- Day 1–2
Early Mobilisation
Physiotherapy begins within 24–48 hours of surgery while the patient is still in hospital. The focus is on safe sitting, standing, and initial walking with appropriate support. Breathing exercises and foot and ankle movements help reduce the risk of clot formation.
- Week 1–2
Range of Movement and Basic Strengthening
Exercises progress to improve joint flexion and extension, manage swelling, and begin activating the muscles around the joint. Patients are guided on safe movement at home and what to avoid during early recovery.
- Week 3–6
Progressive Strengthening
Resistance-based exercises are introduced gradually to rebuild quadriceps, hip abductor, and core strength. Walking distance increases and patients typically transition from a walking aid to independent walking during this phase.
- Week 6–12
Functional Recovery
Exercises become more functional - stair climbing, sit-to-stand training, and balance work. Return to driving, low-impact activity, and everyday tasks is assessed individually based on surgical and clinical progress.
- 3–6 Months
Return to Activity
Most patients achieve their primary functional goals within three months. Continued strengthening and activity-specific training supports return to recreational activity. A formal discharge assessment ensures that patients are safe and confident to continue independently.
