One of the most common questions we get after a patient has had a knee replacement is, Can I kneel on my new knee? A recent study shows the answer is Yes!

The new findings are based on a recent study of 250 patients that had knee replacement. It shows that 68% could kneel without any problems. The others went through a “kneeling Protocol” and 90% of them could then kneel. Check out the protocol below.
