Helpful Treatment Options - Special Report


ACL Rehab Has Many Components

Whether you have had surgery or not, rehabbing your knee back to a more health state is very
important. Sure, you already know that to be true. But, we can help you with some free
information that will help you get a better idea about what an optimal ACL rehab will entail.

Surgery Vs. No Surgery

After an ACL injury, and a conversation with your physician, you may determine whether or not
to go with surgical correction of your ACL. Sometimes people do not. There are reasons why
both scenarios would be beneficial for different people, but our point is to show that part of the
ACL rehab experience may start with a surgery or more conservative treatment. - Either way, a
knee brace support can help give you more stability and pain reduction, but more on this later.
(We will discuss many important aspects of physical rehab here, but just remember that your
physician always has the last word. This article is information, and it does not serve for each
individuals medical advice.)

PT (Physical Therapy)

After an ACL injury, your physician may prescribe physical therapy to you as a means for
strengthening your knee. This is done to make sure you feel more comfortable with activities of
daily living that will need your full strength. Often times, physical therapists work hand in hand
with brace specialists because people with ACL knee injuries often times need improved support
while they are performing their exercises.

Knee Braces For ACL Rehab

When you hurt your ACL you may have increased pain or increased instability in and around
your knee. Sometimes both. - There are times when people indicate that their leg is going to
"give out from underneath" of them because of the serious instability problem that they have.

Hey, you might feel reasonably stable sometimes, but there are those moments when you really
kind of catch yourself and wonder if there is something you should do for improved support. -
Well a well designed knee brace can really help with this.

Mental Vs. Physical

Not only can a well designed knee support give you more physical stability but they can also
help you mentally as well. What we mean to say by this is that you will not have to worry so
much about your knee with a quality knee brace. This way you can worry about other, more
important things like your work or your family activities.
