@allthings_womenshealth: Recovery? It’s not fun. It’s not aesthetic. It’s uncomfortable, slow, and often isolating. 💭 As a physiotherapist, I know that recovery doesn’t just start after surgery — it starts before. There’s growing evidence that prehabilitation (or “prehab”) — the things we do before surgery — can actually improve post-op outcomes: 📊 Studies show that pre-surgery prep can: • Reduce complications by up to 30% • Shorten hospital stays • Improve mobility and pain management • Even speed up return to daily function So I’m taking that seriously this time. Not in a perfect, hyper-productive way — but a real, sustainable way. I’m prepping my space. My food. My body. My mindset. My breath. This is my way of softening what’s ahead. This time, I’m meeting surgery with intention — not just survival mode. This is Before the Healing Begins. Follow for more funny, relatable and education female health content.
