[RC] Knee surgery and back to riding - to Val and others interested - Lynne Tomovick
Val - get the PT after surgery. Generally it can be as little as 1-3 visits for home program, things to do/avoid etc. after menisectomy. Most of the folks I've worked with (I work as physical therapist) do great and are back to normal actiivity within a month or so.
I've always thought the closed chain mini squats aka posting would be great strengthening :) Just remember, progressive loading principles and checking for heat and swelling :) Don't forget the Trigger points, manual work as needed too ... it helps with recovery if you've got issues.
Good Luck! Lynne
