Thank you Dr. Andrea Furlan . Watching your videos it was life saving .i had a fusion back surgery . One day I couldn’t pull myself I was very weak so I tried one of your method and it worked .❤🥰😍
Hi Nadia. Thank you for sharing that.
Thank you very much for these tips. I will start doing them. Xx
The text covers the demonstrations completely so the first exercises are all hidden.
I'm afraid in my case ìts easier said than done. Have bad knees for starters.
I have bad knees and recently fell. I landed indian style at the bottom of steps. Broke my wrist. With all of the adrenaline, I stood straight up no hands first time in over 20 years.
The key to this is to practice these methods and strengthening before a fall and don't wait for a fall. Great video.
Excellent suggestion 👌
I'm 86 years old woman. I'm arthritic. I use a walker with wheels since I can't walk more than maybe 20 feet. I've had two knee replacements and can't bend either knee to 90 degrees. I also have a very bad left shoulder joint from having tumors removed, which also removed most of my shoulder and triceps muscles from that arm. I'm also very overweight. So I can't do any of your methods.
I can't get my butt more than two inches off the floor. What I have done is slide myself to a stair case and sit with my back to it, brace my feet, put my hands on the lowest step and push myself up that far. Then I push up onto the next step and from there I can stand up. Any kind of stationary low platform would do. Or something like a low coffee table next to a chair or sofa.
86 God bless you.
I'm old n I have new knee .my husband is older and fallen several times .
If your older and not well none of these will work .we e tried them
TRUE, IT'S ALRIGHT FOR YOU BEC YOU ARE YOUNG, THAT DON'T WORK IN THE OLD PERSON WHO IS WEAK
The fith method is; go to both knees and if you cannot get up, crawl to the nearest door knob and make sure the door is closed and grap it to help you get to one of your knees and it will be easier to get up.
Thank you! But my video is for people who do not have anything to hold.
Or go to a chair or stool to help you get up!
Or crawl to a secure chair.
Also try to keep a phone on your person or a neck alarm so you can call the Fire Dept or loved ones, neighbors for help. Study all of your options. My friends have saved their neighbors lives.
Thank you for sharing that with us.
This doctor is sharing her expertise. She is saving lives. I love her strengthen exercises. She is giving you options. Thank you for sharing this very important , I appreciate that you took the time to share this post.
Hi Carl. That is great to hear. Please share this video with your friends.
If you have bad arthritis in your hands what do you do please
I am so thankful for this video! I myself am 78 years old, and the lady I care for is 92. We have been practicing these exercises for the past 1.5 months.
Great job!
You can lay for awhile, get your wits about you, let strength restore, and follow this video. I love it❤❤❤
Most importantly, pray first❤❤❤ FATHER SON HOLY SPIRIT
@@user-wu5ql2zc1m, great advice, if you're Christian!
I have been told I will most likely be in a wheelchair within 10 years, due to osteoporosis in both my hips. So I am trying to get physically stronger as much as I can. also trying to prepare myself for any falls that might happen. Thank you for your video! 🥰
I was stuck on the toilet lately.One knee was too painful and the othet was creaking.
I am a retired nurse / midwife.
The first thing I did was to relax .
Let my body go limp.
I had made 3 attempts to rise up already.
Relaxing my body gave me the courage to stand up.
TY it is a great idea to prepare for ways to get off the floor when on your own and do physio when we can.
Terrific video xxxxc
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
Marydesmond, thank you for sharing! ♥️
Maybe time for one of those raised toilet seats.
Liked the video I do believe in prevention better than cure 🙏👍 doctor May you be blessed !
This is great Sent it to my mother and her husband. Both have fallen and they are in their 80s. Thank you for this.
Hi Wanda. Thank you for sharing
Serdecznie dziękuję Pani doktor za wszystko co robisz dla seniorów
Many thanks for this Excellent and Easy Instructions. Thank You.
Thank you doctor
Clear, concise and most helpful.
Best video showing how to get up from a fall. Thank you. I will pass it on to others.
Thanks, please share.
Thank you for great Info
Nagyon köszönöm. Hasznos video!
Obrigada Dra. Andrea 🌹♥️
Good info!! I am 72 but would suggest facing the chair in front of the wall with front legs of the chair facing the wall.😊😊 so a person could not tip the chair.
Thanks Johanna. I made this video for people who fall and there is no furniture around them.
Thank you so much for thses instructions for getting up after a fall and also for the excercises for strenthening the muscles. I will certainly start practising them and I will report back about the effects after a while.
Glad you like them!
MERCI Dr Furlan ! Atteinte de sclérose en plaques, et marchant avec une canne anglaise, il m'est arrivé de tomber plusieurs fois sans pouvoir me relever seule...😮💨 Je vais essayer vos méthodes 1 et 2 (3 et 4 impossible pour moi) en renforçant d'abord les quadriceps et mes fessiers (qui sont peu performants...) en suivant vos exercices ! Merci encore et bonne journée ! 😊😊💐
Oh dear. Im pretty sure my knees arent going to bend enough to do those. Ill try. You don't even have to fall to do this. I got down on the floor to look under the bed then found it challenging to get up in a small space. Great info tho!

I have had both knees replaced and one hip....no pain, but, my balance is absent and can't prop myself up onto my legs...have found scooting to some place where there is furniture or something to support myself.
All four of your methods require using your knees. I cannot kneel at all because my knees are boney. They don’t support me. When I have fallen, thankfully in my kitchen, I “swim” across the laminate floor to the carpet. Grab my recliner and hoist myself up. I am a large woman, age 78, and these will not help people with weak or damaged knees. Please address this in your intro. The exs you show are good. They are what my physical therapist advises and I try to do them twice a day.
I found a bit of success by keeping knee cushions in every room in my house then able to get into knee position long enough to do these "get up moves". Also low stool or book pile help in a sitting push back and rise onto low stool and work your way up by pushing off from feet and arms, no knee pressure on replaced knees involved. Practice with another person present for safety.
I have to use furniture and pull myself up. I’ve fallen twice outside and had to use a car to pull myself up. It’s scary. My legs started getting weak when I was around 40. I’m 65 now. Doctors don’t really listen. I had one do a thyroid blood test. He called and said nothing was wrong with me. 😮I wear an Apple Watch with cellular all the time unless it’s charging. And try not to step in a pothole. Yes, I’ve fell in a pothole before.
Thank you for good advice.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video . All older people should watch this video Thank you !
Thanks to you dear doctor.
Surely these exercises and methods to get up will be of so much help to seniors.❤❤
Always welcome
Thank you so much! I am grateful for all of this information, including the sttengthening exercises at the end.
May God richly bless you.

Very helpful Thank you for posting
You're welcome!
I can’t put weight on my knees at all. Every one of these, the knees met the floor with weight of the body on them. Ouch! Impossible with knee replacements, or bad knees before replacements.
Hi Becky. So, it must be really hard for you to get up from the floor. How do you do it?
@@DrAndreaFurlan I am not able to get up off the floor! I can’t do it without assistance.
This was such good information as I have fallen many times I did the last one and that’s how I got up. Thank you so much

I use the front method in a modified way. When I lay on my back, I raise one knee toward my chest and grasp it with 2 hands. As I lower my leg, my upper body is pulled into a seated position.
The methods. She discusses are elegant. Granted one must have adequate strength levels. Fortunately, we can all increase our strength. The ways are many and varied. And the ways to do it can be virtually pain free. Visualized resistance is one prime example. But an in-depth discussion of such methods ls beyond the scope of this missive.
Practice makes perfect
Excellent very easy 😊
Hi Satnam. Thank you for posting this comment
Thankyou i am going to try this after dropping beads all over my craft floor. I found my knees and legs were in pain and I couldn't get up . Used the chair method, will definitely try your exercises.
I have another video of exercises for knee osteoarthritis.

I have reservations if senior can really do these methods which requires having to lie down on your tummy because most seniors have a little bit big bellies (in fact some have big ones) and therefore it won't be physically be practical to do all these. Probabaly you could consider first deep breathing and relaxing first, then try to crawl into lying on your side then slowly push yourself up up to the sitted position with both hands. After this take a breather again then slowly crawl yourself to the kneeling crawling position like a baby until you slowly transform into a pooping position. Finally if you can stand up with both knees better. But if not, use your both hand to push yourself up by pushing against the stronger knees in a bended posture and then slowly rise into a standing position. Just my humble opinion based on my experience in rising up after a lying position exercise on the floor. Now if no avail, the best option is simply to lie on one side and slowly push yourself on a sitting position , relax and shout for help. In this way your lungs and heart with be at a better position. Hope this helps. But that said, my appreciation doc for your post of course.
Hi @Colstan thank you for your suggestions.
Thanks 💯❤🙏🙏
You are welcome Shahnaz.
😊 thanks Dr ❤
You are welcome. Please share this video with your friends.
I actually use the plank method to get up from falls (and I’ve had too much experience with falls). I discovered it on my own. My knees are arthritic and painful to kneel on and to try to stand up. This method works for me…unless there is a strong man standing nearby. I’ll take man. Firefighters are very good at this (voice of experience). 😁
I have another video of exercises for knee osteoarthritis.

1st one is out for me can't kneel on either knee, long prothesis in my left leg and my left shoulder is buggered one arm and one leg. I would have to wait for someone to miss me or crawl to the phone and call the pompiers for help

Great techniques. I have myositis. Hopefully I can do the second or fourth someday
I hope so too!
Thank you soo much for sharing your great thoughts for exercising for the seniors. Have a great day Dr.Andrea
Hi Teresita, thank you for your comment.
Sempre bravisssssima dottoressa Furlan...il 1° e il 2° mi sono molto utili! Ho 70 anni e le cadute possono essere un problema serio alla mia età 😟. GRAZIE di ❤ x i suoi video 🙋🏼💐
Hi Maria Teresa. Thank you for your kind words and emojis. 😍
Great ideas on getting up, if older people had strength they problem won’t fall very often.
Hopefully if the person falls on the floor they will get a strategy to get up.
I can relate. Same with me
I'd like to see most 60plus seniors do the plank method!!!
Благодаря❤❤❤!

God bless u sis ...Recently i have gone through one of your pinched nerve video its has done some magic on my pain ....so kindly can u say some excercise for back pain and sciatica pain....
That is great to hear. Please share this video with your friends.
I have cidp a muscle and nerve disease and muscles are not good. Its too hard to get up when I fall. I fell once and it takes all my strength to get up. What an ordeal. Thanks for showing these.
Just practicing these 4 methods is a pretty good workout in themselves.
Great to hear!
I can't do any of these methods but I appreciate you showing us, thank you Dr.
@BadgerDevil So, how do you get up if you fall and there is nobody around or any furniture?
@DrAndreaFurlan I have a friend who lives in my building, just upstairs.
We have a system in place, one of us will call the other by 11:00 am, if the person doesn't answer we wait 20 minutes and try again if no answer we go and see what the problem is.
When she comes in she gets a stool that is very low to the floor and helps me to get on it.
Then, with her help, we get me back on my feet.
When she is not available, I can sometimes get my self on the low stool, then slowly push the stool across the floor (I have rugs) to my recliner, where I can sometimes pull my self into it.
If none of that works I call an ambulance for assistance.
I took a nasty fall on my right arm & leg the day after foot surgery. Couldn't put pressure on my right foot, and badly sprained my wrist. I was a hot mess!! I managed to scoot over to the bed and pulled myself up. It was SO FRUSTRATING, and I felt so frail - grr! Great advice, am going to practice;) You are the best to share these methods & exercises!!😂❤
Thanks for posting this comment
@@DrAndreaFurlan I'm following you religiously!! Most welcome.
Very informative and excellent at explaining why.👍
Great video Doc, very helpful video, im sure many older folks will benefit from this video. God bless Doc. Have a great weekend.
Hi Julio, thank you!
Thank you for this and all your previous lessons especially the one to do before getting out of bed. How can I access all your programs which are of tremendous help? Thanks and blessings.
That is great to hear. Please share this video with your friends.
Hi doctor, first of all, ty for all your helpful videos, we are learning alot, my mom was diagnosed with degenerative osteoarthritis and she is doing some of your exercicies as her daily activity, her doctor told her to consume hydrolized collagen with hyaluronic acid + resveratrol, but theres only 1 place that is selling those combined in my country and is far away from us, is that really the best for her or could you recommend me something as good as that or even better? My apologies if my english is bad.
Hi Fer. That is great to hear. Please share this video with your friends.
I have so much trouble getting up off the floor because of health conditions that make it nearly impossible.
1) I have Duprytren's Contracture in both hands.
2) I have Carpal Tunnel in my right hand and wrist.
3) I have metal knee replacements in my knees.
4) I have Lumbar Spinal Stenosis in and also in sacariliac joints.
5) I have Osteoporosis.
6) I'm 72, with very weak muscle strength and I weigh 172 pounds.
My last fall was in a parking lot. I literally couldn't get up and I had to crawl on my forearms and drag myself to my car. I unlocked the car door with my automatic key button and from that point I got on my metal knees (hurt like hell) and used the steering wheel to pull myself up into my car. No one stopped to help me. That was two months ago and I'm still suffering in pain. Any suggestions for future falls?
I had another mishap getting out of the bathtub. I was stuck in there for over an hour. There are no safety grab bars installed in my apartment, except for the plastic ones I put in. Which by the way are not safe. I used one to pull me up and the suction cup caused me to fall backwards and I hit my head really hard. I live alone so I was stuck in there. I grabbed a bath rug and was able to get on my metal knees and back myself up to the edge if the tub and freed myself!😊
Thaks your your great ideas.
You should contact the office of aging where you live, they can evaluate your home safety and get you help.
I have another video of exercises for knee osteoarthritis.

This is not foe senior citizens! Maybe in your 20’s 30’s & 40’s! I’m sixty, have two knee replacements and a bad right shoulder! I call for help! Or scoot to a chair, back toward the chair and try Han try and push up on it with feet and hands, that’s if it’s an overstuffed living room chair.
Hi @sunshinecindy570 That is the whole point of this video, how will a senior get up if there is no furniture around? I've had too many patients who were on the floor for hours or days, and almost died becuase there was no furniture around.
Thank you for sharing , but if you have a bad shoulder/ arm could be an issue.( that may have been or maybe not have been caused by a fall.
Good advice doctor, I will pass this information on to others. I can use it as well. Have a good day 😊☺️❤
Hi Germaine. Thank you for sharing.
After my first knee replacement I could kneel on the knee without replacement. After I had the second knee done, I was not able to kneel on either knee. Once I had to call 911 and the fire truck came to help me. I scooted over to open the door. They just pulled me up by my hands. That’s all I needed.
Very helpful video! Thank you!

Thanks for sharing!!
Dr. Furlan, how do I go about making an appointment to see you in person professionally? I recently had spinal surgery and could really use your help. Thank you
Your doctor has to refer to me at the TAPMI pain clinic in Toronto, Canada.
@@DrAndreaFurlan Will do! Thank you.
To make the last method easier( the sit up method) you can grab one of your legs around the thigh and pull yourself up that way.
Hi Helen, thank you for your suggestion.
❤I will share this video to my parents❤❤ 1:52
3rd method needs a floor that isn’t smooth!
Thanks for the video❣️
Hi Elizabeth. Yes, unfortunately people don't always fall in places that have a floor mat.
Great video but I couldn't access the handout which I wanted so that I can keep it with me as a reminder when I am traveling
The second method (two knees), I believe, would work best for me.
Useless for those whose knees are painful. Someone educate this doctor about how many older people have painful knees.
Only one method used the knees.
I have bad knees both replacements one not very good due to left foot deviating 20% to the left I also have a hip replacement and bad arthritis in the other also have stenosis in neck and in lower back and severe arthritis in both shoulders so there really is very little chance of getting up which is not so good as I also have a balance problem so if I go down I have to have stairs to bum shuffle onto if I need to get up on my own.
You need one of those alert things to call someone if you fall.
@@dvenezue1aApple Watch is cheaper than the button necklace that has a subscription.
Amen🙏
I can't use my knees because of avascular necrosis. I have fallen and the pain is just awful when I try and put any pressure on my knees or back.
I'm sorry to hear that. How do you get up from the floor?
I scream! And keep smiling.🥴
Thank you❤
Hi Margaret. You are welcome.
I was excited when I saw the title. When I saw the first one, I thought, "Well, this is a waste !!! She knelt on her knees !!!!"
Then, I thought, give her a chance.
I watched all four methods. NO !!
Do you have another method that you recommend? I would like to know.
I don't have another method, but I know I would be hard-pressed to do this given my knees and my weight. Thanks. Yes. I have my own body work to do to get stronger.
3:14 ❤❤❤❤I love it
What do you do when both knees have been replaced & one cannot put weight on either knee?
I would turn on my stomach and then press up into a yoga down dog and then slowly bring my feet closer to my hands and then stand up
Yes, it is really a challenge. How do you do it?
very good recommendations, but when your hips are stiff and cannot do the upwards dog, what can you do. I know, exercise. Trotzdem, mir gefällt das Video, thank you :)))

How come the server can not find the site for the download?
I had a bad fall on the street, I don't remember how I fell, I have flashes trying to get up and fallen again hitting my jaw. BY the time I heard myself mouning I became more conscious and tried to get up again, I was numb, couldn't feel anything as I walked back home. My question? How to remember when we are senseless, as in no thinking process?
@jeggomz506 That is exactly what I say in the beginning of the video. If you practice one of these methods everyday, you will remember it automatically when you need it.
I can't get on either knee without excruciating pain. Wish someone would come up with a good way to bypass hitting knees.
Hi Annette, I'm sorry to hear that. How do you do to get up from the floor then?
I have to work
myself to the couch, get some pillows, get on my stomach, grab the back of the cushions, grit my teeth and pull myself up as quick as I can. If my arms were stronger I could push myself up sideways
If you have knee replacement on both knees any pressure on them is pure torture.
.
.
Yes, then it must be really hard to get up from the floor.
Need upper body strength exercises please. 😊
Coming soon!
I have both knees replaced.. and if I fall I can't get up using my knees...I have to crawl to the living room and get my back to the sofa and with my elbows pull myself up till I can help myself with my feet till I pull up my but up to the sofa. If I fall outside or another place I have to call for help........I can't use my knees at all......
I have bad knees, so these are out. These are for younger seniors . Your bones, muscles have to be in good shape to be able to get up .
I can barely get up if there's a stool, chair nearby.
😢
About 3 years ago I fell in my living room and it took me more than 30 minutes to succeed in getting up . I stayed on my back asking myself how to proceed . The solution for me was to roll on the floor until I reached the side of the'sofa , then I did the dog position and finally I grasped the sofa to get up . I'm 76 and I'm totally unable to get up if my hands are on the floor because of very weak wrists
Hi Marie, it is easy if there is a furniture around. But this video is for people who cannot reach the furniture.
Knee pain is horrible trying to get on knees to pull up. And help there?
Hi Kay, how do you get up from the floor?
Modified one leg method:
Roll towards your strong arm and plant your elbow.
Roll the rest of the way onto your knees.
Complete the one leg method .
You can do this with a broken arm or dislocated elbow/shoulder.
I have had surgery on both knees and both shoulders. 1988, 2022, 1969, 1976 respectively. Hernia repair that trapped a nerve 1995, pacemaker 2020.
Sprained my right ankle to where I was black and blue at the knee in 2001.
Pain is relative, in 1968 I cracked my thighbone in the bearing surface of the knee. I got up and continued bucking hay. That was a level “8” pain. Level “9” was the right ankle.
It’s that easy
I'm glad it is easy for you.
My recent fall left both knees terrible bloody and painful. One shoulder injured.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
