Knee Pain Relief Stretches - 5 Minute Real Time Routine
Спорт
These knee pain relief stretches are great for helping to relieve general knee pain and knee stiffness. The knee stretches are done in real time, so they are easy to follow. Buy a worksheet with these knee stretches: www.askdoctorjo.com/7-knee-st...
In general when doing knee stretches (or any kind of stretching), you want to hold most stretches for 30 seconds, and do them 3 times. Sometimes you might not have enough time to go through your whole stretching routine, which can be time consuming. If you are in a hurry, still hold the stretch for 30 seconds, but do less reps.
This video starts with a quick knee warm up for 45 seconds with heel slides and quad sets. These will help loosen up the muscles for the stretches.
Next are calf stretches, hamstring stretches, and IT band stretches, all of which are easy to stretch with a strap, belt, or dog leash. All these muscles cross the knee joint.
Finally, quad stretches and hip flexor stretches also do a great job of helping to relieve knee pain.

Same my knee just started hurting out of nowhere and I cannot figure out what it is.. all the doctors said was “ur hamstrings are tight”
I over-rotated my knee during ballet class, and I had to sit out for the rest of the week. Fortunately, Spring Break was the following week, so I had extra time to stretch my knee. I picked this knee since you helped my lower back pain a year ago. Once I finished this video, my knee felt way better, and I was able to do my more dance moves. Thanks, Dr. Jo! You really helped me. I hope that people will visit this video, so they can feel better.

I am a certified massage therapist and the stretches that you talk about definitely do help because the muscles everywhere in your body can get overworked and pull the spine out of place pinching the nerves
I’m 56 and just started to get back into cardio and weight training again. I had a couple surgeries. My knee was so bad it hurt to walk. I followed this and I feel great. This is my new daily pre-workout routine. Thank you! PS. My hips feel better too. 😁

Guys if you're wondering if you should do this do it. I had surgery on my knee a few months ago and just recently was able to go back to working out full time. Afterwards my knee would become very sore. Ever since I started doing this it's felt great. Seriously this is the one to do.

Had a spinal fusion when I was 16 and had some screws put in now I'm 27. Never took advice when I was younger about stretches and now I find myself using yours. Tweaked my knee shoveling snow and it's slowly been getting better but it will hurt and then not hurt again for awhile so I am adding these to my back stretches!
