Meniscus Surgery Rehabilitation Newcastle

Meniscus Surgery Rehabilitation

The right rehab after meniscus surgery restores your knee's strength and movement while protecting the repair. Because recovery differs significantly depending on whether your meniscus was trimmed or repaired, your programme needs to match your specific operation — which is exactly how we plan it.

Meniscectomy vs meniscus repair

These two operations have very different timelines:

 

  • After a meniscectomy (trimming), recovery is usually quicker and weight-bearing progresses sooner
  • After a meniscus repair (stitching), the repair needs more protection and progresses more gradually
 

We adapt your rehab to your exact procedure and your surgeon’s guidance, and give you a realistic timeline at your assessment.

I had been struggling with nasty persistent back and shoulder pain for 2 months before booking an appointment with Chela, and it was the best decision I could have made. Her clinic space is absolutely lovely, and Chela herself is such a warm, and caring person who puts you instantly at ease. I cannot recommend her enough if you are struggling with pain. I am so happy i am no longer in pain.

Being a regular badminton player, I can't thank Michelle enough for helping me with an arm with no movement in it. She is so thorough in her assessments and she absolutely listens to what I had to say about it. Extremely knowledgeable about the body and the treatment I have been receiving is spot on. Apart from the actual treatment, she gave me great exercises to do at home which have helped enormously and I now have a fully moveable arm. I am so glad I found her.

I honestly can’t recommend Dane enough. From day one, he’s made me feel welcome and at ease, especially as I was nervous about trying something new. I’d been struggling with severe shoulder and back pain for years, to the point where my shoulder blades were practically frozen in position. It was affecting everything from sleeping and working to training at the gym and even picking up my daughter. It was taking a real toll on me both physically and mentally. What stands out about Dane is how much he genuinely cares. He takes his time to understand the underlying issues, explains what he’s doing and why, and goes the extra mile to help you get better. He’s also given me rehab exercises to improve my mobility and strengthen areas that have been lacking. The difference has been massive. My back and shoulders feel so much freer, my mobility has improved massively, and I can finally train without pain, sleep properly and get through work without relying on painkillers. Most importantly, I can pick up my daughter and play with her without constantly worrying about the pain. I’m genuinely grateful to Dane for the difference he’s made to my life. If you’re struggling with pain or an injury, I’d highly recommend him. I’m so glad I took that first step!

Amazing people! Chela and Michelle really know their stuff. So friendly and proffesional. Even when I was not paying for their service, they went out of their way to get me to the correct treatment for my condition. Cannot thank them or recommend them enough.

I honestly can’t recommend Chela at Body Repair Clinic highly enough. I contacted Chela because my 12-year-old son Charlie had been experiencing ongoing ankle pain for several months. He is very active and plays football, so naturally I was really worried about what was causing the problem and whether it could affect him going forward. From my very first email, Chela was absolutely brilliant. She was incredibly helpful, responsive and reassuring, and took the time to understand what was going on rather than just treating the obvious symptoms. She gave us different options and explained everything clearly, which made me feel that Charlie was genuinely being listened to and properly assessed. The assessment itself was fantastic. Chela was so good with Charlie and made him feel completely comfortable. She looked at the bigger picture — his structure, foot position and how everything was working together — and explained things to both of us in a way that was really easy to understand. We also had his feet scanned and custom insoles made to help support his foot position. What really stood out to me was how much care and attention Chela gave us. As a mum, when your child is in pain and you don’t know why, it can be incredibly worrying. Chela gave me confidence that we were finally taking the right steps and, importantly, that Charlie was in very safe and knowledgeable hands. I’m so pleased we found Body Repair Clinic and Chela. The combination of expertise, professionalism and genuine care is exactly what you want when you’re dealing with a child who is in pain. Thank you so much, Chela, for helping Charlie and for putting my mind at ease. We really appreciate it and would absolutely recommend Body Repair Clinic to anyone.

This was the first time I'd tried a Reformer Pilates session and I'm already raring to go for the next. The group sessions offered have a maximum of three so you have the full attention of the instructor. Very clear instructions throughout the session and able to help with adaptions to support mobility or pain issues.
