About this trial

Researchers will compare telerehabilitation to face to face rehabilitation (traditional rehabilitation programme) to see if telerehabilitation works in total hip arthroplasty recovery.

Participants will:

* Attend physiotherapy and rehabilitation sessions supervised by a physiotherapist 2 days a week for 8 weeks. * Participate in assessments (before surgery and at 6 weeks and 12 weeks after surgery).
