About the Course

Are you facing hip and knee pain, preparing for joint replacement surgery, or on the road to recovery? Our course is tailored for individuals like you, aged 50+, who are motivated to improve mobility and strength independently at home.  What causes hip pain? There are six main movement types in the hips… flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, internal and external rotation. Different muscles help each action. Commonly, some muscles are stronger than necessary and others are a little sleepy. This pulls the thigh bone a little out of alignment. Eventually this leads to wear and tear on the joint. What causes knee pain? Again, misalignment of the knee joint causes wear and tear. It’s worth noting that of the 11 muscles that cross the knee, 7 are hip muscles too. We really can’t have a conversation about sore knees without addressing hip function. This is why so many of my clients undergo knee replacement and are disappointed that the pain or function didn’t improve significantly. Standard rehab so rarely addresses hip function. Can I do yoga before/after joint replacement? Absolutely! This at home yoga program for hip & knee pain will release and strengthen your joint. It includes the top yoga poses for hip and knee pain. It leads you step by step through yoga exercises for hip and knee replacement patients. The yoga practices show modifications for hip and knee replacements. I strongly recommend utilizing this yoga for hip and knee pain series to release and strengthen BEFORE surgery. This is called “pre-habilitation”. My clients respond much better to surgery and recuperate more quickly with this preparation. Learn to walk properly after joint replacement My clients are most concerned about relieving hip and knee pain, but they also want to walk more normally again. This at home program addresses the root causes of hip and knee pain. It will bring greater balance to the muscle function. Not only will you release and strengthen the hips and knees, but also walk more fluidly and with more confidence. This course is appropriate for those waiting for joint replacement surgery or in the recovery phase. As with any exercise program, consult with your health care team before embarking on this journey. The yoga therapy approach is about small changes in movement patterns repeated frequently. To use this program, plan to spend about 15 minutes a day, maybe two times per day. Focus on each video on its own for awhile, even weeks. You’ll know when you feel your body is ready to progress. Rushing, and doing all the videos at once, is counter productive.
