Physiotherapy After Back Surgery

Spinal surgery falls into several categories: spinal fusion; disc replacement; decompression for stenosis; microdiscectomy; discectomy. The details vary with the presentation of the patient, the operation and the course of recovery but principles can be noted. Initially a physiotherapist will attend the patient pre-operatively to ascertain the pain presentation and to test the patient.s muscle power and educate them about the operation. On the first post-operative day the physiotherapist will check the patient.s pain presentation again and retest the muscles of the legs to ensure that no untoward changes have occurred.

Mobilising back surgery patients is straightforward. They are rolled onto their most comfortable side and got up sideways while their legs slide off the bed. Sitting is minimised due to the lumbar stresses it imposes and patients are usually walked a distance as long as they feel well. Neural mobilising and core stability exercises may be prescribed by the physio as appropriate. Recent evidence indicates that a more active rehabilitation regime after certain kinds of back surgery may ensure a better result, although in spinal fusions the fusion of the operation site is the priority. Physiotherapists follow up spinal patients on discharge from hospital and design an individualised rehabilitation regime.
