These typically involve smooth gliding exercises involving both legs in a circular fashion. Typical closed chain exercise would be:<\/p><ol><li>Static bike<\/li><li>Elliptical trainer<\/li><li>Rowing machine<\/li><\/ol><p>These exercises are generally safe and build muscle in a controlled environment. We major on static bicycles in my practice as we are developing world-leading technology in this area to monitor and control exercise remotely as a home-based program.<\/p><p>Land-based exercise is best for the legs. This means that water-based exercise, while popular and often social, is not as useful for your lower limb joints and muscles as it does not duplicate real-world conditions. So I would advise you to think seriously about access to a static bicycle if you are having any surgery on the knees and hips.

Less sleep, or poor quality sleep, affects other things profoundly, such as pain perception in particular. Therefore, anything that can be done to improve sleep matters. Normally I recommend using natural light where possible ie letting your body rhythms sync with natural light and then timing exercise for first light and last light. <b>Be careful with painkillers such as opiates- they can easily make things worse<\/b>. Try and take something just before bed for pain if you find the pain is consistently waking you up, and also half an hour before exercise.&nbsp;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section

that most of my patients thrive in an environment where we clearly define what is their responsibility without, before and after surgery. Pain-free recovery of function is the goal of treatment &#8211; surgery is best seen as only part of the solution.<\/p>\n<p>My research interests come out of a belief that we have not been very good at<em> measuring the impact of what you do as a patient<\/em> i.e. what we would call<em> patient agency<\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your effort<\/li>\n<li>Your motivation<\/li>\n<li>Compliance (doing what is recommended)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>My experience with many patients here in my orthopaedic practice in Perth keeps confirming it: What you do as a patient often makes a significant difference, almost always more than you think! Most patients want to understand this and that is why our <a href=\"\/research-orthopaedic-surgeon-perth\/\">research programs<\/a> are gaining a lot of interest. The benefit for you as a patient is that we now empower you to manage your recovery in the comfort of your own home with remotely-monitored exercise, collecting data that refines your outcome.<\/p>\n<p>I always welcome your own new ideas to make the most of your rehabilitation, and stories &#8211; we love stories!<\/p>\n<p><em>A Scottish patient told me recently that bending her knee after a knee replacement \u2018was like bending a haggis\u2019. It was a new but useful expression. Normally I describe bending after a knee replacement as \u201cbending a balloon &#8211; it feels like one side will pop and the other will kink\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>These things are pretty useful to other patients so please keep those stories coming in.
