The Post Surgery Knee Replacement Course

From day 1 after surgery to a 1 year out, this course tells you exactly what to do at every stage. You’ll get guided exercise and stretching plans, printable exercise programs, and continued support even after formal physical therapy ends.

Guidance through the everyday challenges of living with your new knee. Learn how to safely manage stairs, get in and out of chairs, bathtubs, and showers, and how to properly use your walker before progressing to a cane. We’ll show you how start a walking program that supports your goals.

Find out what to do when your knee feels tight or your range of motion plateaus. You’ll learn exactly what stretches to do—and how to do them correctly—to reduce tension and improve your knee’s flexibility.

As your recovery advances, your exercises should too. We’ll teach you how to increase intensity safely, avoid setbacks, and challenge yourself in ways that support lasting strength and confidence. Phase-appropriate exercises that go well beyond the basics.

Wondering about pool therapy, Baker’s cysts, kneeling, when to call your surgeon or when to return to specific activities? It’s all here—answered clearly and without the medical jargon.
