Surgical Preparations

Pre and Post

Pre- and Post-Surgical Preparations

In Bastidas Manual Physiotherapy we do our bit for the success of any type of surgery. We carry out pre-surgical and post-surgical treatments in which, by means of advanced manual physiotherapy techniques, we manage to prepare the area to be operated on or already operated on, eliminating adhesions or tissue restrictions and ensuring that the blood supply to the area to be operated on or already operated on is much greater at the time of the operation or after it.

Treatment objectives

The main objective of these treatments is none other than to prepare the tissues and structures so that when the surgeon makes the incision, it is elastic and spongy so that when stitches are given the scar is free of tension and can epithelialise much sooner.

Epithelialisation is the process by which epithelial cells unify to form the skin and cover the wound; in other words, healing and scarring. It is not the same to sew or glue two pieces together with tension or torsion (it will be a weak area), than without tension (it will be an elastic and resistant area).

Release all tissue adhesions peripheral to the area to be cut by the surgeon.

Eliminate tensions between joints, muscles and viscera so that the blood micro-circulation flows in optimal conditions and all the structures involved in the operation are rehydrated.

RESULTS BEFORE INTERVENTION

  • Elimination of muscle and joint pain.
  • Improvement of vascularisation and local temperature.
  • Control of inflammation, if any.
  • Pre-surgical stress management.

RESULTS AFTER THE INTERVENTION

  • Partial or total pain reduction. Often the tension of the muscles pulling on the scar hurts more than the surgery itself.
  • Reduction of inflammation in the area of the scar and surrounding structures.
  • Oedemas and haematomas are very small and easily reabsorbed.
  • Early mobility of the area.
  • Prevents the appearance of keloids or hypertrophic scarring.

WITHOUT PRE-SURGICAL TREATMENT

The case of a girl footballer undergoing post-surgical treatment after a ligament and meniscus tear who came to our facilities two years after the first operation and after 5 operations.

Photos day 16:  Knee operated on 5 times over two years for failure to improve after the first operation. See the degenerated appearance of the knee and the scars two years after the first operation and the 4 subsequent operations:

Photos day 17:  the day after the first session a better appearance can already be observed:

Photos day 19: photograph taken three days after the first session and after the second physiotherapy session. A substantial change can be seen in the general appearance of the knee and the scars. The patient reports that she articulates better and feels little pain:

WITH PRE-SURGICAL TREATMENT

The case of a footballer who underwent pre-surgical treatment at our clinic and who, after the operation, came to us 13 days later to have the joint checked.

Photos at 13 días of the intervention and with thephysiotherapy treatment previous 4 sessions. The patient reports that he has had almost no pain during the post-operative process and has been walking normally since the 7th-8th day. It can be easily observed that the appearance and the healing process are good:

Satisfied Customers

"In Bastidas they attend me very well, both the receptionist Elena and Jóse the physiotherapist. I have noticed the improvement from the first session. It is a physiotherapy with advanced techniques that I had never seen in other physiotherapies. Among other things, I have improved my sporting performance in mountain races and my back pain disappeared in the first session. It treats the problem from the source that causes it. It is worth the money invested in this physiotherapy. A 10 for me.

Jaime Lucena

"We are very happy to have taken our little boy. He was days old when we put him in your hands, as he had been born with forses. We didn't know what was wrong with him but he was very tense and irritable (the paediatrician said he was fine). Our little boy had torticollis and from the first session we noticed changes. Now he is almost 3 months old, thanks to all the work that has been done with him, he doesn't have that tension or pain, and we have also prevented him from suffering from infantile colic. We continue to take our little one, to keep improving and helping him".

M. Ángeles Sánchez

"I am very happy. I like to do sport regularly and take care of myself. I had a lot of open fronts. I'm talking about aches and pains and injuries. If it wasn't one thing it was another. I went for the first time more than a year ago, recommended by a friend, and I am very satisfied. It is a different physiotherapy to what I was used to, but it has been more effective for me. I have recovered from ailments that I have had for years and from new ones that come up due to sports, falls, etc... (I have had all sorts of things). I have recovered quickly. Trusting in José and perseverance, I am able to continue with the sport, each time better and better".

Javier López

"It is very advisable. In my case, I play football and every year I was injured or in pain. I couldn't last two weeks at a time. I've been coming for 2 months and I've returned to play without any discomfort, I'm much stronger and very confident. They are doing a very good job and I recommend you to come here, you will improve a lot".

Carlos Rodríguez

"I share my experience with the colon hydrotherapy of Fisioterapia Bastidas as an example of how we have to take care of our body and mind. Thanks to the hydrotherapy and of course with the great professionals that help you doubly to feel healthy in a different way. I recommend it to everyone of all ages but especially in the Centro de Fisioterapias Bastidas".

Jorge Romero

"My experience with colon hydrotherapy has been very good. Every day I had a headache, I didn't sleep well, constipation.... With 3 sessions I have noticed a lot of improvement. Spectacular treatment.

Ana Belén Moreno

"My experience at Bastidas Fisioterapia could not be more fruitful. I had a lot of digestive problems and from the first hydrotherapy session I got results, and each session was much better. From the pain in the abdomen to the improvement in sleep, mood and vitality. In short, many benefits and quality of life that for me is already everything".

Raquel María Muñoz
