After a knee replacement, guesswork has no place in your recovery. As a knee replacement physical therapist, I’ve seen it over and over again…people doing random exercises, getting mixed advice, and wondering why their progress stalls. OR wondering why they are suffering through pain and crazy stretches. That’s exactly why I created my Post-Surgery Course: ✔️ A clear, structured plan ✔️ Step-by-step guidance ✔️ No confusion. No wasted time. No guessing. So many people tell me, “I wish I had foun

Okay this is funny but also not funny. Your physical therapy after a knee replacement should start out easy. During the first 2 weeks, you should expect gentle exercises and stretches. And a huge focus on how to manage your pain and swelling. Yes, the therapist might push on your knee some to get it to bend, but the bending should be tolerable and not make your knee blow up for 3-4 days after. It’s all about slow controlled exercises and stretches. Doing too much too fast only increases the swel

Knee stiffness after a knee replacement is so common and yes, biking, walking, and stretching absolutely help in the short term. 🚲🚶‍♀️🧘‍♀️ They get the joint moving, improve circulation, and give temporary relief. But if stiffness keeps coming back, the long-term solution is strengthening. Weak quads, glutes, and supporting muscles make your knee work harder, leading to tightness, swelling, and that “stuck” feeling. When the muscles get stronger, the knee moves better and stiffness decreases

When I work with people after their knee replacement who are struggling with pain, stiffness, bending, straightening, swelling, limping, IT band issues…they tell me… “Why didn’t someone just tell me that from day 1” “Why didn’t they have me do that exercise right away” “Why was I doing that exercise that was making me worse” Some of the most basic things are getting missed or looked over for so many patients. I work with knee replacement patients only. This is my specialty and sole focus. My in
