in the plan moving forward. She believes movement is medicine and that healing is strengthened through
support and community.

Common Questions from Patients

What activities can I do after a knee replacement?

In most uncomplicated recoveries, a knee replacement doesn’t take activities off your list—it helps put them back on.
Many patients return to cycling, skiing, tennis, hiking, and more. Running for exercise is typically the main exception.

How will I know when I need my joint replaced?

Activity level is often the best guide. If pain is limiting daily life, exercise, or recreation—or causing you to avoid
the things you enjoy—it’s time to review options. Conservative treatments can be very helpful, and when they no longer
provide enough relief, that’s often the right time to discuss joint replacement for an arthritic joint.
