Facilitate increased independence and activity levels following total hip or knee replacements
Time with residents after a total knee or hip replacement may be limited. A Home Exercise Program (HEP) with simple, clinically proven tools can provide your residents an extension of the care you provide to help improve outcomes and quality of life.
Simple home exercises with TheraBand® products and
the application of topical menthol can lead to positive outcomes for those who have had a total knee or hip replacement.
Elastic Band Exercise is Comparable to Weights: Elastic resistance bands provide the same muscle response as weights with less shear stress on joints during exercise1
Improved Outcomes with HEP: Rehabilitative exercise with TheraBand® products have been shown to improve quality of life in knee replacement patients2
Reduce Opioid Pain Treatment: Topical menthol is shown to significantly reduce pain in patients with knee OA3
