Effective Physiotherapy Techniques for Knee Replacement Recovery at Home in Mohali

Professional physiotherapy after knee replacement plays a vital role in restoring mobility, strength, and independence. At Healthy Jeena Sikho, we use a combination of evidence-based physiotherapy techniques that support faster, safer recovery—right from your home in Mohali, Chandigarh, Zirakpur, and Kharar.


1. Manual Therapy and Joint Mobilization

Our expert physiotherapists use hands-on manual techniques to gently mobilize the knee joint. This helps:

  • Improve joint flexibility

  • Reduce post-operative stiffness

  • Break down scar tissue for better range of motion


2. Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS)

Why EMS Matters After Knee Replacement:Muscle weakness is common after surgery, especially in the quadriceps. EMS stimulates the muscles to:

  • Prevent muscle atrophy

  • Reduce pain and swelling

  • Restore muscle strength even when active movement is limited


3. Therapeutic Ultrasound

This non-invasive technique uses sound waves to:

  • Boost deep tissue healing

  • Minimize inflammation

  • Improve circulation around the surgical knee


4. Laser Therapy

Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) accelerates the healing process by:

  • Reducing pain

  • Enhancing tissue regeneration

  • Limiting excessive scar formation


5. Progressive Exercise Therapy

Every patient receives a customized post-TKR exercise plan designed to match their healing stage. It includes:

  • Strengthening exercises for quads and hamstrings

  • Balance and gait training

  • Functional movements for daily independence


6. 🧊 Cryotherapy (Cold Therapy)

Why It’s Important: Cold therapy is used to reduce swelling and manage pain in the early recovery phase after knee replacement surgery.Benefits:

  • Controls post-operative inflammation

  • Numbs the surgical area to reduce pain naturally

  • Promotes a more comfortable rehabilitation process


7. 🚶 Gait Training & Walking Re-education

Learning how to walk correctly after knee replacement is essential for long-term recovery. Our physiotherapists offer guided gait training to help you:

  • Correct your walking pattern

  • Avoid putting stress on the new knee joint

  • Regain confidence and independence in daily movement

Preventing Common Complications After Knee Replacement Surgery at Home

Proper post-operative physiotherapy and care play a crucial role in preventing complications during knee replacement recovery—especially when you're healing at home in Mohali.



1. Blood Clot Prevention

Avoid serious complications like Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) by encouraging early circulation:

  • Regular ankle pumps and foot exercises

  • Early and safe mobilization with support

  • Elevated leg positioning during rest

  • Staying well-hydrated to maintain healthy blood flow


2. Infection Prevention

Prevent post-surgical infections with strict home hygiene and professional guidance:

  • Daily wound care education for caregivers and patients

  • Following hand hygiene and sterile dressing protocols

  • Recognizing early signs like swelling, redness, or fever

  • Scheduled visits from a trained physiotherapist or nurse


3. Stiffness & Mobility Issues Prevention

Maintaining flexibility and movement is key to long-term success:

  • Following a consistent exercise routine guided by a physiotherapist

  • Using cold and heat therapy appropriately to reduce pain

  • Applying manual therapy for scar tissue release

  • Adapting activities and rest periods to your recovery phase


4. Fall Risk Prevention

Protect your new joint and yourself from accidental falls:

  • Use of assistive devices like walkers or canes

  • Clear home environment of obstacles and loose rugs

  • Install grab bars in bathrooms and near stairs


5. Breathing & Lung Function Support

Anesthesia and inactivity can impact respiratory health:

  • Use incentive spirometers or breathing exercises

6. Bed Sores and Pressure Ulcer Prevention

Especially important for patients with limited mobility:

  • Repositioning every 2–3 hours

  • Use of pressure-relieving air mattresses

  • Regular skin checks by caregivers or nurses

While physiotherapy is crucial, proper nutrition accelerates healing:

Protein-Rich Foods: Support tissue repair and muscle recovery
