Summary | Exercises for the knee joint

Summary

Due to the various possibilities of injury in the knee joint, the treatment of knees in physiotherapy is a common matter. Simple mobilization in the early stages can improve movement and reduce swelling. Supportive, light strengthening exercises ensure the beginning of stabilization in the knee and are increased in the further course of wound healing with more complex strengthening exercises, in conjunction with balance and coordination training.If there are still movement restrictions, intensive physiotherapy with gliding and traction techniques and detonating measures for the muscles should be carried out.
