Orthopaedic physiotherapy supports recovery from fractures, joint replacement, ligament injury and spine problems. It works closely with the orthopaedic surgeon, so exercises follow the surgeon's protocol and match the healing stage of bone and soft tissue. Done well, it restores movement and strength and helps people return to ordinary life.

Patients looking for orthopaedic physiotherapy in Mumbai at Apex are guided on when to start moving, how much weight to put on a limb and which movements to avoid. Rehabilitation begins early where it is safe, because long rest leads to stiffness, wasted muscle and swelling. The therapist checks pain, swelling, range of motion and muscle strength at each visit and adjusts the programme as healing proceeds.

The goals are practical: getting out of bed, using the toilet, climbing stairs, walking to the shops, sitting on the floor if the person's routine requires it, and returning to work. Walking aids are fitted and taught, and home exercises are explained clearly. If pain increases suddenly, a limb becomes hot, red and swollen, or there is fever after surgery, the therapist advises an immediate review by the surgeon.

Orthopaedic services at Apex include:

• Fracture Rehabilitation: Gentle movement of nearby joints during healing, followed by strengthening and walking practice once the surgeon allows weight-bearing, with guidance on swelling control, aids and returning to work and daily tasks.
• Joint Replacement Rehabilitation: Early walking, range-of-motion and strengthening exercises after knee or hip replacement, with attention to safe positions, stair climbing and getting in and out of a bed, chair or car.
• Ligament and Meniscus Rehabilitation: Staged exercise after knee and shoulder injury or surgery that restores motion, control and strength, and gradually brings back normal activity, sport or work.
• Spine Rehabilitation: Core strengthening, posture training and safe movement habits for patients with disc problems, narrowing of the spinal canal, or after spinal surgery, with advice on lifting, sitting and returning to activity.
