Pilates for Very Painful Knees- 20 Minutes of Chair based exercise for Knee Arthritis
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ก.ค. 2020
- Pilates for very painful knees is for anyone who doesn't feel able to get down on the floor to exercise but wants an effective routine to build strength in their legs as well as manage their knee pain. It contains both strengthening exercises and stretches.These are the best exercises I have found to help people with knee arthritis who want to do what they can to manage their knee pain, as well as build stronger knees in the lead up to joint replacement surgery. Ideally you would try and do this routine three times a week. As with any exercise please only do what feels ok for you and if in any doubt stop. I hope these help you.

I am an Occupational Therapist and Arthritis Exercise Instructor. 26 years and you're class is one of The Best! I will refer my patients to you're channel!
That is so kind of you Jennifer - thank you so much! ❤️
I am 63 years old. My right knee has something that the orthopedist calls "osteoarthritis" (very painful). These exercises (I do as much as I can) do me very well. I've spent too much time in front of the screen and I didn't have the strength to stand up. It helped me to do this routine almost every day. Very grateful I send a greeting from Buenos Aires. Thank you very much for posting it.
Hello- First time to your channel. I was headed toward a knee replacement but With God's eternal promise to great health, I decided to strenghten the muscles surrounding the knees instead. This workout is great as I work at my desk. A Blessing! Looking forward to more.
Welcome tot eh tha channel Jackie 🤗 So glad this is helping you, keep up the great work 🤗
Don’t understand why anyone gave you a thumbs down! Great work out
Thank you so much for these exercises! I am 78; I have arthritis in both knees and I need to strength them so that I can retain my mobility😊
Am 85yrs old lady. Exercises very good
That's amazing Barbara! ❤️
Bravo🎉inspiration! I'm bone on bone 77 years here!
I love this exercises. I’m 71 and diagnose with osteoporosis and so I need this!
I love the seated workouts...I can barely cross my right leg over at all..but am trying. Thank you
I'm 74 and have had knee replacement surgeries on both knees in the past 5 years. For whatever reason, my range of motion on each knee has decreased so I'm doing PT once a week and exercising at home daily. I'm so thankful I have found your channel - I just did these exercises and they are GREAT! Easy to move but I could really feel those muscles and hips working. Thank you so much, I'm a fan!
Am almost 60.Have been suffering from the knees for several years and really fed up of taking pills. These exercises really help to strengthen my muscles. Thank you.
Just caught a glimpse of this. Looks excellent to me. As soon as I get home I will be having a serious go at these exercises. Highly appreciated. Thank you.
You're welcome, let me know how yo get on xx
My big cousin sent me these exercises a few weeks ago. Im 73yrs old. She was probably fed up with me moaning about pains in my legs and knees. I never done them. Dr refered my for physiotherapy i went today and she gave me couple banded leg lifts. I done them and thought i would try the pilate my cousin sent. So glad i kept them. Well i can honestly say they are fantastic great all over bottom half workout along with the teacher. i wish i would have started them when she 1st sent them. All i can say is Learn Wisdom listen to your elders, and a big Thank you to my Big Cousin and Rachel.❤❤
Due to health problems I kept missing my exercise class. Now I am doing your classes for seniors every day. Thank you so much, it means so much to me that I can safely exercise and increase my strength and balance!

Hi, I did your standing knee routine yesterday, and it was awesome! I've been on my feet alot today, so I decided to do your seated routine....this one is awesome, as well! There's so much to pick from on line, and I'm so glad I came across your channel. Thank you!

LOVE YOUR EXERCISES .
Thank you so much
Could you please plan a routine for people with painful hips? I'm waiting for hip replacement and still want to keep active and fit and flexible as I can. Thanku Rachel for all you provide.
Rachel's calm, encouraging approach is really appreciated!
Thank you Rachel
Long live
Your work will be remembered through centuries to help patients of arthritis to avert surgery which is very horrifying.

I enjoyed the exercise, have to teach my husband who has been advised knee replacement and he does not want to do it, he is 85+ and hence prefers not to do it, besides it is expensive, we cannot afford the same, hope these exercises will help him, let me know, I will be so grateful for a reply, thank you
I’ve been recovering for 3 1/2 months from a tibial plateau fracture and my knee gets wooden and stiff after my pt exercising. It’s a mental game to keep going in my recovery because it so much slower than I would like. I started today with these gentle exercises and it’s lovingly encouraging me towards more movement. Feels so good. I plan to do this daily. Thank you so much, Rachel!❤️
Update: Having done this routine daily for 2 months has allowed me to make great gains in my strength, flexibility and mobility. I’m going to now add the painful knee mat workout that you’ve created, Rachel, and see where that takes me! Eternally grateful.💕
Very helpful with severe knee pain. I do these every morning. It gets me going. Thank you!!
As l am 80 years old this set of exercises it is verry clearly.thanks so much xx
You’re very welcome Angelina xx 😊
Thank you, Rachel. Just had a bad flare up of my osteoarthritic left knee which now joins its right counterpart! All joking aside, I know these gentle but effective exercises will help a lot. I was supposed to have had a replacement of the right one five years ago, but I know exercises like these helped to strengthen the muscles around the knees so that I have managed to avoid surgery with only intermittent flare-ups. So helpful!
This is fantastic, just what I need to prepare for knee surgery, and to carry on to keep those muscles stretched and strong. Thank you!!
I want to thank you for creating this channel. I’m suffering from nerve issues & severe balance issues for years. Within 2 sessions my balance has improved & my joints feel better! Keep up the great job- you’re providing a much needed service to us older folks! 😊
I am so pleased to hear how much better you are feeling after just a few workouts- well done! Keep up the great start Christine and I'll be here if you need me. Take care and best wishes, Rachel 🤗
Thank you!😅
Beautiful 👍
Wonderful doable and just challenging enough. I see the results and benefits after just 2 weeks . Thank you !!!!!
Thank you very much,I am from the Philippines,I am 80 yrs.old.God bless you madam.
Thank you for sharing. I have Rheumatoid arthritis and my knees have taken the brunt this time. Will be using these exercises this week. ❤️
Brilliant, thank you. As a 65 year old woman, have suffered knee joint pain for past 10 years and have been seeing a physiotherapist for past year, as I ended up only being able to walk with the help of a crutch. It’s getting better, but I really needed to find a set of daily exercises to strengthen the muscles to better support the knees. Your exercises are really helpful: clearly explained, perfect rhythm and I can really feel the stretches. Keep up the good work. Thank you for giving me hope so that I can avoid operations on both knees.
You're so welcome Trish, really pleased they're helping you 🤗 Keep it going 😊
Thank sooo much fr demonstrating the workouts which has benefited to most of us. B blessed
31 years old and diagnosed with OA at 28. Wow this felt amazing! I stand for nearly four hours straight washing dishes in a restaurant kitchen. Often I find myself needing to get on my knees to reach a dish I've dropped and it can be excruciating. Thank youu
Great video. My left knee is bad and some days it painful to stand let alone get down on the floor to excerise. Being in a chair is so much better.
love love love this ! thank you!

My first day with your therapy I enjoyed it im a 72 year old woman I hope it will make my knees much better
Excellent here in Toronto!
I'm so happy I found this channel and especially this video. I suffer from RA and my knees have gradually have gotten worse, plus not moving much doesn't help. These exercises have made me feel so good. I have also saved some more of your videos and can't wait to try them! Thank you!
I turn 75 in June, I attend Pilates once a week using reformers and I also attend Yoga classes once a week. Your chair based exercise will enhance my fitness regime. Thank you.
I'm so happy I found you. I have early onset arthritis and I haven't worked out in 4 years. I used to be flexible so realizing that I can't even squat to pick up something nowadays was very emotional. I'm grateful for your gentle approach. Thank you.
Good morning....going to do this....came upon your channel this morning as I do have osteoarthritis.....Thank you....good teacher...

Brilliant, thanks so much for this, I also do the seniors morning and the seniors seated and am going to add this to my daily routine! Wonderful you have done so much for my general health and wellbeing
Thank you I’ve used many of your exercises but had trouble with my arthritic knees recently. Just done a week of these and can see a definite improvement.
Just to let you know that I found this video to be extremely helpful, and since I have been incorporating your videos into my daily routine I have found significant improvement in my overall ability to not only exercise, but in my daily life as well. I am very pleased because I have been trying quite a few different approaches to movement over time, and it did begin to seem that nothing was working. So please, keep innovating as it is having an impact.
Thank you Rachel from Dublin xxsiobhan 💞
