Hip Labral Tear Repair Recovery & Home Physiotherapy
Recovering from a hip labral tear repair can feel daunting. Patients often experience pain, stiffness, and limited mobility in the early weeks. Activities such as walking, climbing stairs, and getting in and out of chairs may be challenging.
At Post Op Home Physio, our HCPC-registered physiotherapists provide home-based rehabilitation after hip labral repair. We focus on restoring hip strength, stability, and range of motion while helping you return safely to daily activities and, for many, sport.
Book your home hip labral repair rehabilitation session today — we visit patients across London boroughs including Greenwich, Richmond, Hackney, Croydon, and Camden.

What is Hip Labral Tear Repair?
A hip labral tear repair involves reattaching or trimming the torn labrum, the cartilage that forms a seal around the hip socket. This procedure is often performed arthroscopically, allowing for smaller incisions and quicker recovery.
Surgery is commonly indicated for:
- Traumatic hip injuries or dislocations
- Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
- Repetitive hip motion in athletes
- Structural hip abnormalities or dysplasia
SERVICES
Why Physiotherapy is Essential
Physiotherapy after hip labral repair is crucial to:
- Restore hip range of motion and flexibility
- Strengthen hip and core muscles
- Improve balance and stability
- Reduce pain and swelling
- Support a safe return to sport and everyday activities
Skipping structured physiotherapy increases the risk of stiffness, weakness, and ongoing discomfort.
