<br /> <br /> <br /> Air Force Active Duty | Solving Ligament Tears<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Elizabeth solved the problem only after finding X10 to recover from her MUA. Ligament Tears were just a part of the damage done to her knee years ago. It is exactly what we were able to do for Elizabeth that gets our whole company up in the morning. Listen and read below.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> A Ton of Knee Damage<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In this episode, we delve into the recovery journey of Elizabeth, an active-duty Air Force member who has bravely navigated the challenges of knee injuries and multiple surgeries. Elizabeth shares the significant impact her injuries had on both her physical health and her emotional well-being over the past two years. Her story begins with a devastating knee injury sustained during deployment, leading to the unfortunate “unhappy triad” of torn ligaments, which ultimately resulted in her first surgery. Solving Ligament Tears.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Hi, this is Mary Elliott. I interviewed Elizabeth Amos for the <a href="https://x10therapy.com/the-bees-knees-podcast/">Bee's Knees Podcast</a> in the autumn of 2024.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Elizabeth Amos<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Elizabeth details the frustrations of rehabilitation following her ACL repair, particularly the stability issues that persisted, compelling her to pursue a second surgery. The second surgery, which involved a more complex reconstruction and rerouting of her IT band, was significant. Elizabeth describes her dedicated commitment to physical therapy, attending two to three sessions a week while facing ongoing challenges with knee flexion and stability. Despite her efforts, improvement was slow, leading her to consider further interventions, including manipulation under anesthesia.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Setbacks, Difficulties, A Real Struggle<br /> Throughout our conversation, Elizabeth candidly discusses the emotional toll that her recovery journey has taken on her. Amid the setbacks and difficulties, her determination to regain her pre-injury lifestyle shines through. She expresses how important it is for her to return to running and her daily activities, highlighting the internal struggle of maintaining motivation while dealing with physical pain. Elizabeth's resilience is remarkable, providing listeners with insight into her mental strength during this challenging time.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Following her manipulation procedure, Elizabeth faced further frustration with her progress, which led her to seek out alternative options for recovery. It was during this search that she discovered the X10 rehabilitation system. Skeptical but hopeful, she decided to give it a try, curious about how it could facilitate recovery without intensive pain — a stark contrast to her previous experiences in physical therapy.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Elizabeth shares her initial expectations around using the X10 and the resulting positive outcomes. In just a couple of weeks, she reported a tremendous increase in her knee flexion from 95 to an impressive 126 degrees. She discusses how the pain-free nature of the therapy was a game changer, allowing her to incorporate it seamlessly into her daily routine while continuing to engage in life and work without feeling constrained by her past injuries.<br /> Our conversation culminates in Elizabeth imparting valuable wisdom to others facing similar challenges. She emphasizes the importance of exploring all options for recovery,

<br /> <br /> <br /> Knee Replacement Performance Six Years Later<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> We all want to (wink wink) BE LIKE MIKE. An interview with Mike Kranis six years after knee replacement surgery.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Be Like Mike Kranis<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> We share today a chat with Mike Kranis about his inspiring journey from knee replacement surgery to becoming an avid hiker. Mike shares his experiences with knee troubles from basketball, the challenges of recovery, and how the X10 Knee Recovery System helped him achieve a remarkable 130-degree knee flexion. His story emphasizes that knee replacement can open new avenues for an active lifestyle. We discuss the importance of resilience, effective rehabilitation, and the adventures that await post-surgery.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Mike Kranis<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Hi, this is PJ Ewing. I interviewed Mike Kranis for the <a href="https://x10therapy.com/the-bees-knees-podcast/">Bee's Knees Podcast</a> in the summer of 2024. Mike had a total knee replacement in 2018, and lives an incredibly active life today.<br /> Mike Kranis is a remarkable individual whose journey from knee replacement surgery to peak physical performance exemplifies the potential for recovery after such a transformative procedure. I aim to shed light on real-life experiences that inspire listeners who may be facing similar challenges. This episode strays from the ordinary discussions of knee surgery, focusing instead on remarkable success stories that defy expectations and redefine recovery.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Mike, a retired postal worker turned avid hiker, shares his compelling narrative that began decades ago with a series of knee troubles resulting from a love of basketball. Despite undergoing multiple knee surgeries throughout his life, including a crucial knee replacement in January 2018, Mike’s journey took a pivotal turn when he decided to embrace hiking fully. Transitioning from basketball to a hiking enthusiast, he recounts how his passion for the outdoors led him to become a hike leader within his local county park system and expand his adventures to trails around the Appalachian Mountains.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-affdf9e9e6dda33c5713652772c2cdb0.owl-carousel .owl-nav div {<br /> width: 36px;<br /> height: 36px;<br /> border-radius: 500px;<br /> }<br /> .dt-arrow-border-on.gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-affdf9e9e6dda33c5713652772c2cdb0.owl-carousel .owl-nav div:not(:hover):before {<br /> border-width: 0px;<br /> }<br /> .dt-arrow-hover-border-on.gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-affdf9e9e6dda33c5713652772c2cdb0.owl-carousel .owl-nav div:hover:after {<br /> border-width: 0px;<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-affdf9e9e6dda33c5713652772c2cdb0.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-prev {<br /> top: 50%;<br /> transform: translateY(calc(-50% + 0px));<br /> left: 5px;<br /> }<br /> @media all and (-ms-high-contrast: none) {<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-affdf9e9e6dda33c5713652772c2cdb0.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-prev {<br /> transform: translateY(-50%);<br /> margin-top: 0px;<br /> }<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-affdf9e9e6dda33c5713652772c2cdb0.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-prev i {<br /> padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-affdf9e9e6dda33c5713652772c2cdb0.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-next {<br /> top: 50%;<br />

<br /> <br /> <br /> Protective Muscle Spasm Stops Knee Recovery for Knee Replacement Patients<br /> The PT pushes your knee down. Your brain triggers your body to push back... A Protective Muscle Spasm<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> * <br /> It is possibly the biggest obstacle to regaining your range of motion<br /> <br /> * <br /> And it's a devil to treat (also known as protective muscle guarding)<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> After your total knee replacement, your body will go through several different stages of healing. One of those stages is the inflammatory response, the first step of tissue repair in which your body sends extra cells to help repair and protect the area. As you continue to heal, you will go through the proliferation phase (the rebuilding phase) and then the maturation phase (the final stage of remodeling). Unfortunately, sometimes this process doesn’t exactly go to plan. You may experience an increase in inflammation, a hematoma (a collection of blood under your skin), both of which can restrict motion and hinder the repair process of your body and cause an increase in pain, spasms and atrophy. Your body will try to limit how much pain you experience, which results in protective muscle spasms, or muscle guarding."<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div {<br /> width: 36px;<br /> height: 36px;<br /> border-radius: 500px;<br /> }<br /> .dt-arrow-border-on.gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div:not(:hover):before {<br /> border-width: 0px;<br /> }<br /> .dt-arrow-hover-border-on.gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div:hover:after {<br /> border-width: 0px;<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-prev {<br /> top: 50%;<br /> transform: translateY(calc(-50% + 0px));<br /> left: 0px;<br /> }<br /> @media all and (-ms-high-contrast: none) {<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-prev {<br /> transform: translateY(-50%);<br /> margin-top: 0px;<br /> }<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-prev i {<br /> padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-next {<br /> top: 50%;<br /> transform: translateY(calc(-50% + 0px));<br /> right: 0px;<br /> }<br /> @media all and (-ms-high-contrast: none) {<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-next {<br /> transform: translateY(-50%);<br /> margin-top: 0px;<br /> }<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div.owl-next i {<br /> padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav i {<br /> font-size: 18px;<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div:not(:hover) i,<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div:not(:hover) i:before {<br /> color: #ffffff;<br /> background: none;<br /> }<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.gallery-carousel-shortcode-id-f8045e5041039a029ed41b43c8edd60e.owl-carousel .owl-nav div:hover i,<br /> .gallery-carousel-shortcode.
