What Is Total Knee Replacement Rehabilitation?
Total knee replacement rehabilitation is a personalized physical therapy program designed to help patients safely
regain knee movement, strength, balance, walking ability, and functional independence after knee replacement
surgery. Rehabilitation can address post-surgical stiffness, weakness, swelling, reduced endurance, and difficulties
with everyday activities.
A structured total knee replacement physical therapy program is tailored to the surgical procedure, healing stage,
medical recommendations, physical abilities, and individual recovery goals. Treatment progresses gradually to restore
comfortable movement while respecting applicable surgical precautions.
A personalized rehabilitation program may help patients:
- Restore knee range of motion and flexibility
