Best Range of Motion after Total Knee Replacement

After total knee replacement surgery the therapy and early rehab is so important to obtain good range of motion and prevent scar tissue from forming which can limit function and lead to pain.

Here I will let you know the information that I share with my patients about how important early range of motion is after surgery. I think that to get the best range of motion after a total knee you need to put in the time and know what to do to achieve your goals. In total knee replacements you really only get one chance to get a good outcome, there are no do-overs. Commonly, once your knee is stiff or you develop scar tissue you will be stiff for life.

I will show you the two exercises I share with every single one of my patients. I believe that it is these two exercises that help them achieve their goals. I commonly hear from therapists about how my patients recover so much faster than most total knee replacement patients that they care for. Although the pre-op preparation, the surgery and pain control protocols play a part in that outcome, a major factor is patient participation in therapy.

Always check with your doctor before starting any exercise program.
