Pilates for Very Painful Knees- 20 Minutes of Chair based exercise for Knee Arthritis
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 лип 2020
- Pilates for very painful knees is for anyone who doesn't feel able to get down on the floor to exercise but wants an effective routine to build strength in their legs as well as manage their knee pain. It contains both strengthening exercises and stretches.These are the best exercises I have found to help people with knee arthritis who want to do what they can to manage their knee pain, as well as build stronger knees in the lead up to joint replacement surgery. Ideally you would try and do this routine three times a week. As with any exercise please only do what feels ok for you and if in any doubt stop. I hope these help you.

I am 63 years old. My right knee has something that the orthopedist calls "osteoarthritis" (very painful). These exercises (I do as much as I can) do me very well. I've spent too much time in front of the screen and I didn't have the strength to stand up. It helped me to do this routine almost every day. Very grateful I send a greeting from Buenos Aires. Thank you very much for posting it.
I am an Occupational Therapist and Arthritis Exercise Instructor. 26 years and you're class is one of The Best! I will refer my patients to you're channel!
That is so kind of you Jennifer - thank you so much! ❤️
Hello- First time to your channel. I was headed toward a knee replacement but With God's eternal promise to great health, I decided to strenghten the muscles surrounding the knees instead. This workout is great as I work at my desk. A Blessing! Looking forward to more.
Welcome tot eh tha channel Jackie 🤗 So glad this is helping you, keep up the great work 🤗
Thank you so much for these exercises! I am 78; I have arthritis in both knees and I need to strength them so that I can retain my mobility😊
Don’t understand why anyone gave you a thumbs down! Great work out
Am 85yrs old lady. Exercises very good
That's amazing Barbara! ❤️
Bravo🎉inspiration! I'm bone on bone 77 years here!
I love this exercises. I’m 71 and diagnose with osteoporosis and so I need this!
I love the seated workouts...I can barely cross my right leg over at all..but am trying. Thank you
I'm 74 and have had knee replacement surgeries on both knees in the past 5 years. For whatever reason, my range of motion on each knee has decreased so I'm doing PT once a week and exercising at home daily. I'm so thankful I have found your channel - I just did these exercises and they are GREAT! Easy to move but I could really feel those muscles and hips working. Thank you so much, I'm a fan!
Am almost 60.Have been suffering from the knees for several years and really fed up of taking pills. These exercises really help to strengthen my muscles. Thank you.
Loved this workout Rachel. Thank you.
Rachel's calm, encouraging approach is really appreciated!
As a 69 year old ex PE teacher, with bad knees, this set of exercises is just so excellent. Clearly explained , sympathetically, and just at the right level for me. Thanks so much.
Great job! I enjoy this level,so I may progress eventually. Thank you so much.

I want to thank you for creating this channel. I’m suffering from nerve issues & severe balance issues for years. Within 2 sessions my balance has improved & my joints feel better! Keep up the great job- you’re providing a much needed service to us older folks! 😊
I am so pleased to hear how much better you are feeling after just a few workouts- well done! Keep up the great start Christine and I'll be here if you need me. Take care and best wishes, Rachel 🤗
Thank you!😅
Beautiful 👍
I enjoyed the exercise, have to teach my husband who has been advised knee replacement and he does not want to do it, he is 85+ and hence prefers not to do it, besides it is expensive, we cannot afford the same, hope these exercises will help him, let me know, I will be so grateful for a reply, thank you
Love this really works thank you
Was just looking for this.Thanks so much ❤️
Only started these exercises a week ago. Love doing them. Clearly explained.
Thanks good exercises. Going to save to my playlist
Thank you, this helps me.
I wish you could make more of these seated workouts. I have problems with my sciatica and these exercises are the only ones I can do. Thank you so much.
Good one
Yes please

If you type in “seated workouts”into the search bar on you tube you’ll find lots of seated ones.
Amazing. Will do it.
I’ve been recovering for 3 1/2 months from a tibial plateau fracture and my knee gets wooden and stiff after my pt exercising. It’s a mental game to keep going in my recovery because it so much slower than I would like. I started today with these gentle exercises and it’s lovingly encouraging me towards more movement. Feels so good. I plan to do this daily. Thank you so much, Rachel!❤️
Update: Having done this routine daily for 2 months has allowed me to make great gains in my strength, flexibility and mobility. I’m going to now add the painful knee mat workout that you’ve created, Rachel, and see where that takes me! Eternally grateful.💕
This is absolutely fantastic & so helpful. Thank you. 🥇
31 years old and diagnosed with OA at 28. Wow this felt amazing! I stand for nearly four hours straight washing dishes in a restaurant kitchen. Often I find myself needing to get on my knees to reach a dish I've dropped and it can be excruciating. Thank youu
Thanks for sharing this workout. I really need for my knees.
Thank you, Rachel. Just had a bad flare up of my osteoarthritic left knee which now joins its right counterpart! All joking aside, I know these gentle but effective exercises will help a lot. I was supposed to have had a replacement of the right one five years ago, but I know exercises like these helped to strengthen the muscles around the knees so that I have managed to avoid surgery with only intermittent flare-ups. So helpful!
This was great exercise. Very well explained.
Hi, I did your standing knee routine yesterday, and it was awesome! I've been on my feet alot today, so I decided to do your seated routine....this one is awesome, as well! There's so much to pick from on line, and I'm so glad I came across your channel. Thank you!
This is fantastic, just what I need to prepare for knee surgery, and to carry on to keep those muscles stretched and strong. Thank you!!
Brilliant, thank you. As a 65 year old woman, have suffered knee joint pain for past 10 years and have been seeing a physiotherapist for past year, as I ended up only being able to walk with the help of a crutch. It’s getting better, but I really needed to find a set of daily exercises to strengthen the muscles to better support the knees. Your exercises are really helpful: clearly explained, perfect rhythm and I can really feel the stretches. Keep up the good work. Thank you for giving me hope so that I can avoid operations on both knees.
You're so welcome Trish, really pleased they're helping you 🤗 Keep it going 😊
Thank you for this workout
Thank you. Enjoyed very much.
I've been doing knee exercises for some years.These ones seem to have had a huge effect on the level of pain.Thank you, you're one of my daily rituals now
Thank you
Same here 😅
I'm so happy I found this channel and especially this video. I suffer from RA and my knees have gradually have gotten worse, plus not moving much doesn't help. These exercises have made me feel so good. I have also saved some more of your videos and can't wait to try them! Thank you!
Thank you! Feels great!
