Physical Therapy for Total Knee Replacements

Knee Replacement Recovery in Georgetown, KY

Regain Strength, Stability, and Confidence

A new knee should mean new possibilities — less pain, more movement, and getting back to the life you’ve been missing. But without the right rehab, many people stay limited longer than they should.

Stiffness, swelling, and fear of movement are common after surgery — but they don’t have to last. With the right support and a plan built for your body, recovery becomes progress, not frustration.

At Hyphen, we help older adults move beyond the basics of post-op recovery. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy guide you through a focused, strength-based program that not only heals the knee — but strengthens everything around it so you move better than before.

Your recovery plan may include:

  • Strength training for quads, hamstrings, glutes, and hips

  • Flexibility and range of motion work for the knee joint

  • Gait training to restore smooth, confident walking

  • Balance exercises to reduce fall risk

  • Manual therapy and dry needling as needed for pain or swelling

Things we treat

  • Total knee replacement rehab

  • Partial knee replacement rehab

  • Post-surgical stiffness or limited range of motion

  • Muscle weakness and gait dysfunction

  • Knee instability or balance concerns

  • Scar tissue or swelling

  • Difficulty climbing stairs or walking distances

  • Secondary joint pain (hips, back, ankles)
