6-Week Shoulder Surgery Rehab Programme

Personalised, structured rehabilitation designed to restore strength, movement, and confidence after shoulder injury or surgery.

Recovering from shoulder injury  can feel frustrating.
 Pain, stiffness and limited movement can make even simple daily tasks difficult — getting dressed, washing your hair, reaching a shelf.

You may be unsure what is safe to move, when to progress exercises, or whether your recovery is on track.

This 6-week programme provides clear, guided physiotherapy — tailored specifically to your surgery, stage of healing, and personal goals.

Your physiotherapist has extensive NHS orthopaedic experience in post-operative shoulder rehabilitation, including rotator cuff repair, shoulder replacement and stabilisation procedures.

Is This Programme Right For You?

You may benefit if you:

  • Have recently had shoulder injury (frozen shoulder, fractured humerus, shoulder dislocation) or surgery (rotator cuff repair, shoulder replacement, decompression or stabilisation)
  • Are wearing or have recently removed a sling
  • Feel stiff, weak or restricted in movement
  • Are unsure how to safely progress exercises
  • Want structured weekly progression
  • Are worried about developing long-term stiffness
  • Want expert support to return to daily activities, work or sport

Shoulder rehabilitation requires the right balance — protecting healing tissue while gradually restoring strength and mobility.

What’s Included

Every programme is bespoke, but typically includes:

  • A detailed post-operative assessment in your home
  • Review of surgical protocol and healing timelines
  • A structured 6-week rehabilitation plan
  • Graduated mobility work to restore range of movement
    Progressive rotator cuff and scapular strengthening
  • Postural and movement retraining
  • Pain and swelling management advice
  • Weekly physiotherapy input (home visit or virtual)
  • Ongoing adjustments based on your recovery

No two surgeries are identical — and no two recoveries should be either.
