Today I am at 8 weeks post op and have used many of your tips and exercises! I am 125 on the knee bend and today reached full extension, very pleased with my progress!
Great job! Keep up the amazing work
Bring a year since my replacement and still do the exercises and go to the gym 4 X a week...it's a process..
Thanks Dr. Samantha
From 6 months post op I have used the Leg Extension machine once a week...of course I do not do a lot of weight ( 4 sets of 10)...I am at 18 months and will continue this exercise as long as I can.
Thank you Samantha , I am 91 days Post Op from a TKR of my left knee , I appreciate your videos and advice, I am coming along nicely!
Dr Samantha: You Rock! Thank you! 12 weeks PO.
Very helpfull
Your videos have been really helpful. Eight weeks post surgery. Back in the gym with modifications to some of the exercises.
Thanks Dr Samantha 👌👌
It took me 7 days to lift my leg . I thought it was never going to lift then suddenly it just lifted I couldn’t believe it. Every day something happens it may be a little thing but it a positive. 4 months on something positive still happens. You suddenly do something automatically. Keep doing the exercises. Eli ate and ice if necessary. I do .
Thanks Samanta ,great advice
Glad it was helpful!
Good advice thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Dr. Samatha!
You're most welcome!
This is right on time!
Im coming up on 1 yr post op & was wondering how much longer do i need to keep stretching. I usually try to hit every other day for 15-20 minutes. Especially on days when it feels tight. I’ll try to hit once a day. 👍🏼
Its 8th days post my right knee replacement your videos are really very helpful thanks alot from India
Happy to help!
The Ideal Knee that you have recommended helped me immensely. I am 8 weeks out. I was given 2 weeks to avoid an MUA. I ordered the device, used it and at my appointment today he was very happily surprised. No mua for me. So thank you!
Wow!! What an awesome testimonial. That’s incredible! So glad it helped and you were able to avoid the MUA
Hello Samantha im now on my 3 weeks post opt surgery Right knee its too dry can i put lotion ?
@christiearnold2781, what device did you order? I'm on my 7-8 weeks and still feel stiff on my knee.
It’s the ideal stretcher. www.amazon.com/dp/B096L3DDJ3?maas=maas_adg_F85181EAB93853DE4D0C86E45E480D8E_afap_abs&ref_=aa_maas&tag=maas
You can around the incision but not on top of it yet. If you have any scabs left, you’ll want to wait till they are completely gone and healed before using lotions.
I'm 5 months out, do I need to stretch more than once a day?? Your videos are always helpful!
When I do a lunge on a box my husband made it’s the height of a stair and I can bend it prob to 130 but when I do it with the chair it doesn’t flex as much but I can sure feel the stretch I can flatten my knee out to zero on the bed. I’m 3 1/2 months post opt on second knee
Im 4 weeks out and doing my Physical Therapy. My surgical incision looks good overall . Is petroleum jelly ok to help the incision heal? Thanks for your help and videos !
I am a little over 2 weeks po and I am doing great with my surgical knee. My problem is I have pain in opposite butt muscle due to shifting all weight to opposite side for so long. How do I get both sides in balance again??
Hi Samantha, I’m now on my seventh week and 4 days, what is best for me at this time. Thanks Joe
You may want to join my Post Surgery Course for that answer. There’s a lot to do at week 7. Www.Succeedcourses.Com/post-surgery-course
I am 4 weeks post knee replacement. I am wondering about your longer workout program for a fee. How much for a 4 week cost? Thank you. I love this workout.
I have an 4 week exercise class. This is someone who is 3 months post op: www.succeedcourses.com/Exercise-class
If you are wanting more guidance now, I’d recommend my Post Surgery Course: www.succeedcourses.com/post-surgery-course
So glad I found you on youtube! Really great info! And I sure do envy your flexibility!!
A week after my TKR, I still cannot lift my leg vertically off the bed. If I make a huge effort it might lift by a fraction of an inch but gets agonising pain under the kneecap. Has anyone else experienced this or is something wrong?
I was the same then about day 7 my leg just flew up in the air I couldn’t believe it. I was so excited I sent a video to my niece who is a physio. She lough at my reaction . Keep it up it will come .
Took me 10 days before I could lift my leg!
