Knee Replacement: A Complete Recovery Guide

Most patients begin standing and walking with support within 24–48 hours of knee replacement surgery. Physiotherapy becomes the main focus over the following weeks, rebuilding strength and range of motion. Most patients resume light daily activities within 3–6 weeks, with full recovery typically taking 3–6 months. Our physiotherapy team works alongside our orthopaedic surgeons throughout, so rehabilitation is coordinated from day one.
