You've Had Surgery – Now What?
El éxito de una operación no termina en el quirófano. La rehabilitación postquirúrgica es el siguiente paso crucial para recuperar movilidad, fuerza y bienestar lo antes posible. Sin un proceso de recuperación adecuado, el riesgo de dolor crónico, rigidez y complicaciones aumenta significativamente.
At ClínicaBonaque®, en Lorca (Murcia), llevamos más de 23 años ayudando a pacientes a recuperarse tras cirugías ortopédicas, traumatológicas y neurológicas. Nuestro enfoque combina terapia manual, ejercicio terapéutico y tecnología exclusiva para acelerar la curación y mejorar tu calidad de vida.
Why Is Post-Surgical Rehabilitation So Important?
After surgery, the body needs time to adapt, regenerate, and regain its function. Without effective rehabilitation, issues such as the following can arise:
❌ Loss of mobility due to scar tissue and adhesions ❌ Muscle weakness caused by prolonged immobility ❌ Persistent pain from inflammation or poor healing ❌ Functional limitations that impact daily life
Por eso, en ClínicaBonaque®, trabajamos en un plan de recuperación personalizado para cada paciente, adaptándonos a la cirugía y sus necesidades específicas.
Which Surgeries Require Post-Operative Rehabilitation?
🔹 Knee or hip replacements – Restore mobility and prevent stiffness 🔹 Ligament surgery (e.g., ACL) – Rebuild joint stability 🔹 Fractures and bone fixation (osteosynthesis) – Promote bone healing and improve range of motion 🔹 Spinal surgery (disc herniation, spinal fusion) – Reduce pain and enhance posture 🔹 Shoulder surgeries (rotator cuff, dislocations) – Regain functionality and prevent relapses
Each procedure demands a unique approach. That’s why we tailor every treatment plan at ClínicaBonaque® to achieve the best possible results.
How Do We Approach Recovery at ClínicaBonaque®?
Our post-surgical rehabilitation in Lorca is based on three fundamental pillars:
1️⃣ Manual Therapy – To Restore Mobility and Reduce Pain
We use joint mobilisation, myofascial release, and lymphatic drainage techniques to reduce inflammation and improve flexibility.
2️⃣ Therapeutic Exercise – To Strengthen and Prevent Re-injury
Recovery isn't just about movement – it’s also about rebuilding muscle strength and joint stability to avoid future injuries.
3️⃣ Advanced Technology – To Accelerate Recovery
At ClínicaBonaque®, we offer exclusive treatments in Lorca to maximise outcomes:
💠 MBST (Magnetic Resonance Therapy) – Encourages bone and joint regeneration 💠 Photobiomodulation – Reduces inflammation and speeds up tissue healing 💠 Electrotherapy and Neuromodulation – Activates muscles and improves neuromotor control
