Description

The Zero Degree Knee Slider is a surgeon designed foam cushion that creates the optimal knee extension needed following a total knee replacement, arthroscopic knee surgery, or ACL surgery. Using the Zero Degree Knee Slider as a tool for your in-home exercises is greatly encouraged. It is vitally important to work on your knee motion (bending and straightening) after knee replacement surgery. This will help you regain the strength in your knee to walk without assistance or a limp and get up and down easier from a chair, toilet or bed.

Doing knee bending and straightening stretches and exercises as directed by your therapist is highly recommended to help restore normal movement in the joint and surrounding muscles. Avoid using a position with your knee bent over a pillow, because it will increase stiffness and inhibit your mobility.

Benefits of the ZDK Slider

Maximize Range of Motion

Being diligent in your knee exercises in the days following surgery sets you on the right path to regaining full range of motion. The faster you regain your range of motion after surgery, the faster you will be back on your feet fully recovered. Failure to integrate movement and knee-specific exercises could set back your recovery and cause long-term adverse effects to your knee. Gaining back your full range of motion is part of the road to recovery and it doesn’t happen overnight. You must use the Zero Degree Knee Slider to provide proper alignment and exercise execution.

Speed Recovery Time

Measurements of your knee extension and flexion are key metrics in determining how fast you’re regaining normal movement. With a dedicated Physical Therapy practice in place that focuses on knee movement and proper alignment, you will leave behind stiffness, soreness and immobility. The Zero Degree Knee Slider is surgeon designed specifically to speed up your recovery process and successfully reach your goals.

Reduce Pain Medication Consumption

Having a major surgery can be scary and painful, which often opens the door to using pain medication. Using prescription drugs can help ease the immense amount of pain you experience postoperatively, but it’s no secret that they can also have the serious adverse effects of addiction. Taking proper steps to your recovery by doing exercises to regain your range of motion, and getting your knee extension back to zero degrees, will speed up your recovery time resulting in less pain medication consumption. Our Zero Degree Knee Slider gives you the right tool to be accountable and consistent to get you back on your feet doing everyday activities.
