Great video! I am on week 2 of your program. Between your videos and my chiropractor (who agrees with your videos) my knees feel better than they have in quite awhile. I am just now able to do all the reps and have no desire to quit these exercises. I have had too many painful years to quit.. Thank you for all your videos…💕
Great to hear Joni!

Thanks for writing it out, Giola
These are great tips! Going to try them all!! I refuse to get a knee replacement I'm too young!
Thx for the list! I took screenshot of your list. It will be helpful
Thank you for taking your time to share what worked for you. I'm willing to try anything to escape knee surgery
@@maricris653 Thank U LordJesus for By Thy Sacred Wounds, I M Already. Completely Healed
Thank you for your information. I just went to a knee doctor who told me from my x rays that I needed two knee replacement. He didn’t touch me or anything. I am over weight and losing weight but he acted so funny towards me and I left in tears. I don’t want surgery and he said that was my only option. I was researching and ran cross your video and I feel so much better. Thank you!!!❤
I was like you lost lots of weight. Got better for awhile as I got older my knee got worse, I have RA& osteo. Got my first injection so far good it's been almost a week knee sore just taking it one day at a time.🙏🙏🙏
how are you now? Last week the ortho told me after looking at my xrays that i need two knees replacement. like you i cried, in the car. i am 5'2 and 107 kg with BMI 46. He said lose weight in 6 months and only then can they do the surgery. He said i have Advanced osteoarthritis and both my knees have started stiffening since i cannot lay them flat on the bed. This was so scary information. I know it's my fault because of my weight but still it's hard to take in. Luckily I found Dr David's web even before my meeting with the ortho so i am trying very hard to convince myself that if i lose weight first i might help my knee without surgery. btw, I hope you're are well now. Please share how you manage yours.
Fatima my doctor told me the save thing. There is big money in Knee Replacement surgery. I am praying that this natural way will help me!
Use a cold compress if ur knees r swallen 3-4 times a day. Moving in d pool is helpful but make sure u have ni inflamation
Yes, they treat you as though you are their ATM. All the best my friend, after surgery you need a recliner chair, now I am try to purchase a recumbent bicycle
I was told 4 years ago I badly needed a knee replacement ,I’m still going strong walk everyday no problems I’m 76 😊
Did not you mention it to your doctor?
So you were told you needed knee replacement (why?) but you are walking with no problem. So why where you told you need surgery or what did you do to avoid it?
Me too! My ortho has been telling me for years that I need knee replacements. As long as I can walk my dogs and more, why do I need kne e replacements?
I don’t agree about the walking…I understand running, but walking has so many benefits and is low impact. I was told my doctors and pt to continue that and cycling, swimming as best forms of low impact cardio.
They tell everyone they need a knee replacement. They have told me I needed one forever. I had stem cell and it worked like a charm.
Thank you SOOO much. I also realized if I eat sugar, my knees hurt, if I avoid it, they dont. Makes sense, its inflammatory. I recommend avoiding sugar. Sugar Free in '23!!!
Huge insight about the sugar. Good on ya for putting a stop to it.
I also noticed that salt and red meat cause inflammatory reactions. No salt and red meat, no pain!
You are 100% correct about walking. I ran for years, and when knee pain sidelined me, I kept walking for exercise. But it didn't get better, it has steadily gotten WORSE. Now I go to the gym and do other cardio (but NO TREADMILL) and work with a personal trainer, but I have stopped walking for exercise and that is the only way I can control the pain and swelling in my knee. Also, I am intrigued by point #3 where you say that what they show you on an x-ray (in my case, "You have stage 3 arthritis") might not be permanent. That is a game changer, I never knew that! They made it sound like the degeneration was irreversible and would only get worse, but never better.
Absolutely brilliant. This man is the real deal and wants to help you naturally heal.
Thanks and God bless you sir to let's people know all that experience ❤️🙏
I've spent time and money trying to fix my knees...you have helped me so much that family has asked why I'm walking better..thank you..🇨🇦🙂
I am so encouraged to come across this video. I have been bone on bone for 15 years, and never wanted to do the knee replacement. I do have a bad windswept knee. But i still dont have peace about having it replaced. I just have a real LOW threshold of pain, and at 69 ... I'm ready to try these things.
Wow! Thank you. Had no idea about the effects of overworking the quads and hamstrings on the knee joint. Thats been my problem. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the tips, man. I got it bad and have other complications besides and getting proper trearment has been a nightmare. I am so glad I just happened onto your videos.
All this lines up with what I've been learning from rehabilitating my knees. Really good info, thanks!
Thank you so much. You’ve made the most sense of all the videos I’ve watch and I’ve watched a to. Thanks again.
The fact that Today is LOTS BETTER THAN YEARS AGO, MY LATE HUSBAND HAD HIP REPLACEMENT SURGERY WHEN IT FIRST BEGIN,ON BOTH HIPS,AND HE HAD A ROUGH TIME OF IT, AND LOTS OF PAIN CRIPPLING HIM, YOU'RE WORDS ARE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED 👍.
Absolutely fantastic advice! Thank you sooo much!🙏
Thank you for being truthful and honest. God bless you!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge to people specially who really needs it. God bless 🙏
This doctor speaks the truth and from the real experience of his patients. He is the only doctor that I know that really helps ❤❤❤.. Thank you doctor. God bless you with great health and many years of practicing and blessing people
Thank you True Choice. God bless you,too. 😀
Wow! You are amazing. I have never heard of anything close to these tips. And your right, my clinic was not helping me avoid surgery of my bone on bone knee pain. Thank you so much for all your information. ❤
Love these tips! -- I've been over stretching, inconsistently, and over exercising also inconsistently because of increased pain for many years!
Thank you!
Thank you! I wish I had found this video sooner. I will definitely get on your program asap. 🙏
I trust you because of your sincerity. Good job! Thank you.
You have helped more than the physical therapists I've been to this summer. I felt and heard a pop in my knee, inside, close to the knee cap in mid March. It was during the night and the next day it burned like fire. The inside of my knee became extremely sensitive to touch, so much that I can only sleep on my back with a pillow under my knees. I hurt so bad this summer while on vacation that I walked into an ortho clinic for help. Knee replacement was the number 1 solution but did send me toba physical therapist. He did have me do the dangling exercise which did help. Since ive been back home i went to my Dr who had me see an ortho sur so I saw an ortho surgeon this week and the solution was knee replacement. That night I came across your video about getting rid of inner knee pain! I tried the exercise you gave and the result was amazing! I left the orthopedics office with no hope but you have given hope back for which I'm so grateful! Thank you for caring and sharing. I found you at the right time.
What about straight leg exercises all 4 planes front back both sides it helped me avoid knee pain and I had JRA from aprox 1958 to 1995 l was born 1953 bone on bone for sooo many years from joint damage but l have no pain at all. 10 years ago they wanted to replace both my knees but all l had was a little tare which I healed myself took a long time but I avoided surgery. I've taken all the supplements for over 50 years and won't stop, too much to loose. l feel great at 69 l walk around 2 to 5 miles daily l do a full body workout for 3 miles 3 to 5 days a week. Make sure you take or eat omega 3 oils, turmeric, glucosamine condroitin MSM all important plus 3k to 5 k vit. D3 and a good quality natural multivitamin not synthetic. Be patient it takes time to reverse pain and damage but it can be done.
Please tell those exercises it ll help us
Yes Pamela......you can help yourself and avoid surgery........if I can do it, anyone can.......... I have found meditation to be a great help too,..........walking backwards at every opportunity, Even around the house, relieves pain a lot.......have a look at the. “ Knees Over Toes “ guy on CZcams......quite amazing....... I really believe surgeons will tell you that you need knee replacement even if you don’t. It’s their job, a nice income too........I’ve not heard of one who says that you can do without surgery. But you can. 🥰🥰🥰
What to do if you walk at least 16,000 to 25,000 steps a day. Working 12hrs shifts?
@@marys1417look for another job, or advise your boss you can no longer do that amount of walking. I used to do home care for disabled people. Cleaned 5 houses a day 3 days a week, did shopping for them, drove to appointments. After 10 years my doctor said if you don't quit you will end up in a nursing home. I was 60, and decided reduction of income was better than life in a wheelchair.
Thank You El Paso MPT for this informative and a little unconventional OA treatments. I am Bone on Bone in my right Knee, and also have OA in the left knee and left Hip. I have numerous spinal Maladies which have stemmed from a Leg length discrepancy (LLD) - right leg is 1 inch shorter. I'm 71 YO, male. I suffered a Fractured right Femur in 1966 (15 yo) form playing HS Football. After the full Body cast came off in 3 months, my right leg was 1 inch shorter. It surprised the doctor and after measuring both of my parent's legs [my mother had 1/4" shorter right leg] opined that I must have had that as well. The LLD was left unaddressed, never advising my parents to have my shoes orthodically adjusted. About 15 years later, I started to have lower back pain and stiffness. I knew it was coming from the LLD. The LLD invoked Dextroscoliosis of 25 degrees now, twisting and curving my spine and knocking my Hips out. Not until 2011 when the pains and stiffness have traversed up to my head (cervical spine), did I finally get my shoes adjusted per the new doctor's script. but it was far too late - he told me that it won't correct anything but could help to stop further deterioration. The Spondyliosis / facet Joint arthritis is extensive. Sites of Lumbar and cervical Stenosis and a number of disc bulges with DDD too. The science of Physiatry is amazing! I continue to do research to seek whatever can offer relief. I do take various supplements and trying to drink more water - Which I never did !!
Your videos (info) is so encouraging! Will begin to work on what I can using your advice.
Hello! I can't believe there are wonderful people out there like u who actually trying to help people. It is so amazing. thanks for all your wonderful advice. God bless you.
You are a real inspiration doc. When my orthopedic surgeon looked at the xrays of my knee he said " your knees are bad" My reply to him was "dont believe the xray report because it's not as bad as it reads" What I am saying is ONLY you know whether you need a knee replacement. The doctors will say that the only solution is a knee replacement. My problem was going up and down the stairs. So I told him I only need to do an arthroscopy. He did that and removed some small shattered bones and fixed up meniscus. It took me 6 weeks to feel normal again. I wont say that I am climbing upstairs completely fine now. But the pain that was there is not so bad .I suppose because the loose particles were removed. When I went for my check up he said you should still consider a knee replacement 🙈 I am walking around fine but avoiding stairs as much as problem. Only you should decide whether you need a knee replacement or not.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Great job owning up and taking responsibility for your knees Anju!!!
We're so happy you are back to feeling well again.

@@epmanualphysicaltherapy Yes I did doc and every day I am doing atleast one of your exercises. Thank you very much doc.
I try and avoid stairs but have a few at the mobile home I walk up but hubby built me a ramp so I try using that.
😊😊😅😅
We all have to remember, a knee surgeon needs a job. Without more knee surgeries he or they would not have a job.
Thankyou doctor,for all the details, you are true doctor 🙏
I am glad I found his video. I will give this a try. Thank you. This gives me some hope, after an injury to my knees several years ago.
You are a genius at helping us with exercises ! They work! ❤️❤️
Awesome video!!! I was told 8 months ago I needed a knee replacement. I asked if my arthritis was bone on bone and they said not yet. I think some surgeons are a little over zealous. Thank you for this video!
Love your videos. I have hope now for my pain. Best arthritis advice I have heard yet.
Just found this video; I too have bad knees but don't want a knee replacement if I can avoid it; loved your presentation & attitude, thanks!
I’m 70 and fairly active, mild walks and easy kayaking. I have meniscus and arthritis surgery on my right knee 5 years ago. 3 weeks ago, I had to have some bad arthritis shaved off again. I want to avoid a replacement. Good video!!!!! Thank you. I hope it helps me avoid a replacement even at my age.
Just stopped by to thank you for sharing your treasure trove of valuable information. Following your guidelines has alleviated a lot of my knee pain. I know I will eventually need the replacement but until then these exercises are enabling me to function reasonably well.
Thank you so much for this advice. I can see the wisdom in doing these. I’ve had knee pain for about a year now and been given the advice you mention by PTs and they didn’t help much. God bless you as you continue to seek therapy that works for people.
Dr Manual, I thank you for your Gift of Generous assistance , Your Kindness, And Your Times, I Appreciated your advice, and Thank you, From Australia
I watch you a lot; I have a huge knee issue for 3 years now, after an abdominal surgery where I know I walked incorrectly upon starting walking again) I have been doing exercises you recommend; they work. AND, I just bought that exact massage gun!! And started doing that for my quads, hamstrings & glutes (because ALL of them are tight) So happy to see you recommend doing that, wasn’t sure. You are so helpful. 🙏Thank you!! Healing!!!
Listening to you I found myself nodding like a horse on a farm! So many of those stretches I have found thru trial and error. The latest one was the gluten tightening, It keeps the knee in place. Then you talk about it all, as if I was supposed to find your channel. My whole rt side of body is weaker, because of a slight, life long scoliosis. Meniscus repair on the rt knee a few years back. Sometimes it still " clicks" but worth the surgery. I do walk about 45 min almost daily, then "twist and turn " on the floor stretching. I am a senior lady and my mother is my example. She did yoga and plates in the 50's and 60's and put her bones back in place with different sizes of small balls that she had ready in a cloth bag! This was before there was chiropractic. She lived to be 99. She always said, that body was made to move. I also deal with S.I joint and doctor is recommending a new series of shots...was it phelotherapy?? I should look up the real nsme as now I am guessing. At my grandma age, still looking for natural methods. My knee only bothers me from overuse, or side to side moves. Thank you for shoving a few more moves to work on...yes, I also ballroom dance, which is a wonderful exercise, but there too, I have to remember my age and this arthritis that pests us humans.Thank you again!
Great video....will follow up with the exercises that you mentioned...Thankyou very much for the detailed tips... going thru lot of knee pain, swelling, and pani behind the knee
Thank you, for all the wonderful information!!
Thank you for the advice on healing knees. I did the exercise and it significantly changed my level of pain and helped my mobility.
From a professional position, I totally agree with the decrease in stretching as well I 100% agree with strengthening G-Max muscles. Too many Physical/physio therapists are funnel focused on the Vastus medialis when the reality is: if the hip has medial load due to weakness in external rotators of the hip, you can strengthen the quads to live long day, it's not going to help all that much. Lock clams, kettlebell swings, rack pulls, all great to build the G-max. Keep up the great content
I can’t thank you enough for your videos this one especially. I have bone on bone in my left knee and recently sprained my right MCL with a small medial meniscus horn tear and bursitis. I am using a walker and ice and heat. Taking Motrin and move free and staying off of it as much as possible. I am making headway. The first thing they want to do is surgery or knee replacement and I don’t want either. I saw where they are not recommending knee surgery for meniscus because it can heal on its own. You have given me so much useful information. Thank you!
This video is undoubtedly the best on this subject that I've seen , clear,logical and thorough,

I'm 66 years old and just got diagnosed with severe arthritis bone on bone very painful. It started gradually since last November and became unbearable in July of this year. Being that it was my first visit at the orthopedic clinic I got a cortisone shot to alleviate the pain. I'm not into medical drugs I believe that it may relieve temporarily but harm another part of the body. I was thinking all day of doing natural home remedies and the right exercise. I then tuned on to CZcams and saw your videos.Thank you so much. I am going to do these exercises because I don't want to take future cortisone or medication or have a knee replacement. I am a healthy person thank God. I'm not on any health medication and I want to keep it that way😊
Thank you again for your video God bless you for sharing.
Thank you, you are truly heaven sent! I thought that walking will help me so I can sort of lose several pounds so that my knee would feel better. But, I was so stubborn because I recently joined a 60 mile walk challenge and it was so difficult to walk the 2 mile goal per day. I started using my stationary bike and that seem to help a little and less pressure on my knee! I wish your office was closer so I can get some PT done from your office! 😊
This was excellent! You gave great, realistic doable tips. I will watch again & forward to others. Thank you!!
I’ve had my arthritis over 10 years now and currently I’m 28 years old. Your videos are the first source where i learned about avoiding hard stretching and not strenghtening quads or hamstrings. I’ll give this butt strenghtening a try, thanks mate!👊
I have been bone on bone since 1999...i couldnt get time off from the hosputal i worked at to get them done. So they pushed drugs on me...had reactions got off the rx viox meds but i have improved it periodically..the now no insurance so .i need to help them as much as possible...even if knee surgery is needed. Thank you for the "using your glutes" when walking.that really helps with the pain.
Wow! The is such important information. I had a knee injury and over many years, arthritis developed. I visited two Orthopedic surgeons who took the x-ray and then told me that I have Stage 4 - (learned from nurse what that means) bone on bone, but neither surgeon inspected my entire leg. I could almost hear the "cha-ching" as they left the exam room, and I immediately knew that these guys were not going to touch my knee. Thank you so much for the invaluable information,
❤ THANK YOU, EMENSELY! ❤
YOU AND YOUR VIDEOS ARE PERFECTION!
I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU AND
YOUR EDUCATIONAL EXPERTISE!
This is great advice, but my knees were so severe, I finally got both knees replaced last year. Before, I couldn't even go to the grocery store, even do simple household tasks and had chronic bursitis. I regret not getting them replaced sooner. It's great if anyone can get help from exercises or therapy. but I just wish I had my knees replaced years before they got that bad. The surgery and recovery were not that bad. Lots of physical therapy and walking was essential. Good luck to you all doing exercises or therapy. I hope it works for you, but if you need surgery, don't be afraid to get it. JMO
I'm really happy for your success because I read far too many cases where people got the surgery and have been even worse, not just immediately after but for years or ever since! Would you terribly mind sharing your age at surgery and the pain management you were given? And how long it took to recover? What is your idea of "not that bad" in terms of recovery because wow, a lot of people are saying they were in tears.
Thanks.
there comes a time for many people where a permanent return to an active life style requires knee replacement ..
How long did it take to heal?

I am 54. Been having knee pain for 4 years and no professional doctors helped me ! Been going to chiropractor for 4 years !!!! Just watching your consultant you tube has helped me a lot !!!!!!!!! Thank you so much and I’m still watching and learning every advice you’re giving
Try the unloader knee brace it has saved me and fixed my knee
You are the only one who gives me new hope. I just KNEW there was a way, but I did not know it yet. I look forward to learning more from you. I am going to watch/listen to you again and again and get this right!!!
Weight is the main cause , fix that first
u are great telling the truth abt arthritis and non surgery tips !!!!
I read somewhere that bouncing up and down on a rebounder helps lubricate the joints. It also helps with the lymphatic drainage. Would you recommend using a mini trampoline/rebounder for knee problems? I don't have arthritis of the knee but have had some knee pain from time to time because I'm slightly overweight and know I need to get my weight down. Also I twisted my knee years ago and that may be the reason I'm experiencing some pain there. I do take devils claw and glucosamine as well as collagen protein powder. I also heard that ingesting hyluronic acid helps lubricate joints too.
Thank you Doc. These tips are really practical and manageable. I've been following your tips for some time, and I find them very helpful.
You’re welcome Naula!!! We’re so happy to hear that our tips have been helpful for you!!!
Thank you Doctor for your valuable & simple practical tips to heal the knee joint pain. May God bless you.

Thank you SO MUCH for these videos, my daughter's dog ran into my knee and tore my meniscus I already had meniscus surgery on both my knees and this doctor wants to scope my knee once again. But where I'm having the most pain is not even where I tore my Meniscus I had a physical therapist tell me years ago that my quads were way too tight the doctor I'm seeing now said that he's never heard of that before
Such great advice. Thank you so much. I hurt so much and now found out i have been doing everything wrong.

How is Dad now, dying to know his experience a year or so later.
I had the op. For about 2-3 months it was hard. It has been well and truly worth it since then, about 3 years for me. If you have pain all day every day and have tried diet etc, my advice, get the op.The pain I had for 30 years, gone. It was and still is worth it imo, not even close.
Thank you so much. I just recently found out I have a seal I fridays in my name which really bums me out because i'm very active at seventy one years old. And i'm so happy that I can actually do something about making my knee better other than having a surgery. I will keep you posted. You're the best I do all your exercises.👍
Thanks for the tips. My ankles were sprained and I had surgeries on my toe joints. The ankle twistin exercise seems like a good bet to improve my knee pain.
Yes I love your work. I have been taking your advice and adding a few other bits and pieces here and now. The first time I went in to see any specialist they had a CT scan and the specialist said that I have arthritis under the right knee joint. I’m 52 at the moment and he said I’m too old for a knee reconstruction. I’m too old for knee replacement. But he said that he was in bad condition. So six months later after doing those moves and procedures that you have put forward to us. I have seen another specialist twice more and he stated that he wished he had knee joints like myself at my age. He said there is no arthritis no Cartlidge damage nothing wrong in the knees. And that is just in six months of these procedures you have educated if you is on. Can’t thank you enough for getting out there and Educating the public on right form technique dos and don’t’s for good joints. Love your work thank you
52 is too old? My mom is almost 90 and just got a knee replacement. Not sure if it’s was the best decision but she wanted it so badly and was tired of not being able to walk like she used to. She’s doing ok for her age but I wish I could’ve convinced her to follow these things.
I'm so thankful to have stumbled on your channel. I have bone on bone knee issues and I'm trying to avoid replacement surgery. Climbing stairs is extremely challenging. I'm definitely going to try these tips.

Thank you so much. It makes so much sense.
Okay, 2 weeks ago I started your ‘Top 6 Standing Glute Exercises’ I turn on the video and do them almost every day. I’m 71, I’ve had 2 knee replacements on my left knee (neither worked) and my right knee is so bad 2 different surgeons said they won’t operate. Haven’t been able to walk at all for a month. Osteoarthritis is really bad. Yesterday I started walking (after watching your walking video) 10 minutes 3 times a day. I’m almost pain free. Holding back trying not to overdo it. I’ve been going crazy for years doing hamstring and quad exercises. Your 100% correct, it’s made my knees worse. God Bless.
Excellent video, thanks
You're welcome Meg!!!
I like your videos, because they really helpm me. I have to gor x-ray next Monday for both knees. I am so happy you talked about walking, some people tells me I have to walk often, when I do it my knees hurt. Thanks for your advice. I rather do the exercises at home. God bless 🙌 🙏
Thank you Mirette!!!

I am so thankful to have watched this video. Thanks for sharing. This information is invaluable. I suffer from osteoarthritis so this information is God sent.❤
Thank you for this! I have been suffering with degenerative osteoarthritis for over 20yrs. I also suffer from D.H., so I also tend to get absesses and when i got scheduled for knee replacements, i showed the specialist and then had to do almost a year on antibiotics. He also said I could die on the table if I have infection. All in all, I don't want the surgery, so I'm glad I came across your channel! I'll keep watching.
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge.
Was just shown my bone on bone X-rays.
I wasn’t examined like you suggested.
No surgery for me. I started your treatment program today .
You are a blessing. ❤
Hey Jeannie, thank you for starting our program! We would love to hear from you after a week or two to see how you are doing!
U dint add how to subcribe.
I do a lot of treking will it help
Thank you for the confidence you inspire which is so much better than an attitude of "Oh, God, will I need a brutal surgery."
Thank you for watching.
Thank you very much for this. I will surely start these exercises today.
Thanks Doc for all that info as my are really painful especially in the morning getting out of bed.
I will take your tips as I am against knee surgery.

You're welcome curiosity 2022!!!
Absolutely sage advice from a doctor that really seems to have thought deeply about arthritis of the knee and how to treat it.
Not a medical Dr, he's a physical therapist. Although he may be a Dr of the PhD type.
Thank you! Subscribed! If they had channels like yours before I had my stupid knee surgery that wrecked me for life, so many people would be so much better off!!!!!!
Exactly what I m looking for - avoidance of knee replacement operation. Will certainly try out all your advice - right exercise, supplements & professional therapy. 🙏🏻
Excellent advice! Thank you I have started your exercises ! Should I wear a 😢knee band when exercising? Shelah
I am trying to avoid lnee replacement! Thanls for your advicr
Great information!!!! I've been working on "fixing" my knees with exercise and stretching and I believe you are 100% right about the glutes. After more than 6 months of trying to strengthen my leg muscles to relieve my knee pain I finally came to realize how weak my glutes actually are and with this new perspective I will now increase those exercises. Yay!! I was surprised to hear you say not to work the quads and hamstrings, but what you said makes sense. Thank you!
I just got my shot now making and sound like a rooster at 4:00am. Just kidding 😂 😂🤣. So far feels good except where needle went in still sore got it on 06-08-2023, just using it 🙏🙏🙏🙏🩵 it gets better right knee bone on bone my RA DOC says.. Loved ur video.
Love you vedio thanks a million
This is BRILLIANT. I had come to the same conclusion myself, that my quads were hurting my patella and going lunges/ hip stretches were helping me to walk without pain. My issue is caused by cycling, so I'm not going to go back to cycling for at least a year, or maybe a few years. I will make my glues powerful first.
Thank you for sharing this video with me, maybe I was doing the exercises to fast I understand and appreciate all that you have said.
Thanks Doc, better than any doctors visit. I know this will help me so much...God bless!
You're welcome Joy! May God bless you too!!!
Thank you so much Doc. This is going to help me a lot. I’ve had a painful knee for a long time. I had covid late 2020, and my leg muscles have gotten painful and weak. I always believed it all would be healed without surgery. Now I know what to do, thanks to you! A million thank yous to you!
Hi Christine.......painful knees are no fun........my problem after having the toxic jab is extremely tight tendons in my legs......... I stretch my legs while sitting on the side of the bed before I try to stand up........seems to help quite a bit......heat pad on the sore part helps too.....walking backwards, even just around the house, actually at every opportunity helps to build different muscles around the knees.....works for me......keep on keeping on. 🥰🥰🥰
@@lindamclean8809 Thank you so much, Linda. That is so nice of you to reach out! I'm not sure if I can walk backwards (I had an employee whose dog did that lol), but I'll definitely stretch! I'm determined to be fully the Me I know I was and still am! All the best to you, and thanks again!
Thanks so much for info..much needed!😢😊
THANK YOU SO MUCH. SAW YOUR VIDEO AT THE RIGHT TIME. I'M IN TEARS SO MUCH..THANK YOU. GOD BLESS YOU.
Another great video with excellent tips. I sure wish you lived in the Arizona area! I would surely come to your PT clinic to see you! Thank you so much
Hey thanks lagaringer! Phoenix is the closest major airport to El Paso 😉✈️
You're welcome to visit us!!
Thanks so much for these videos. I'm 72, have been coddling my right leg due to hip bursitis for 4-5 years and now what a mess! The hip is resolving but my knees are toast! I found that trying to do glute strengthening exercises, I couldn't even find them! LOL! My brain quit talking to those muscles. So trying to actually isolate them in an exercise was impossible. Now, "Oh, there you are!" Works especially well when I am standing. Just the glute tightening exercise is helping me reconnect them to my brain - my left cheek is actually a little sore after just starting! But the right is incredibly weak. This is such a great place for me to start regaining my knee strength. Thank you thank you thank you.
Greetings and blessings from Denver Colorado. May God bless you for providing such valuable information. Definitely will consider all of the info shared. Mom has been suffering for years. Wishing you all the best. Please stop by visit whenever you are in town. 🙏🏽💕
