Avid Cyclist and Fitness Enthusiast Diagnosed with Cartilage Tear
“Before I started treatments with Dr. Schnee it was hard to walk or run without pain in my left knee. I knew that my next step would have to be arthroscopic surgery.
Now that I’ve almost completed with my Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Program, I am pleased with my overall experience and results. At this point in my care I am 80% better then I was before starting care. The swelling in my knee is down and it is easier to walk.”

Dr. Schnee,reports how exercise can help arthritis knee pain issues, but it is often a catch 22 because the pain can be too much to start exercising

Weight Gain Makes Arthritis Knee Pain Worse
Osteoarthritis is more common in overweight individuals. The hips, knees, and ankles are the joints that take a beating when a person is overweight. For example they bear 3-5 X the body weight when an individual is walking. For every pound that a person is overweight 3-5 pounds of extra weight is added to each knee when they are weight bearing. On the other hand if there is a 10 pound weight loss then that removes 30-50 pounds of stress on the knees, hips and ankles.
Exercise is a significant component for weight loss. Unfortunately, for individuals that have severe arthritis knee pain weight bearing exercises are often impossible to perform. They know that exercise will help them lose weight, however most knee pain sufferers have pain while they exercise or their knees feel worse after exercising. It’s a vicious cycle.
A great alternative to walking, running, or other weight bearing exercises is using a recumbent bike or swimming for 20 minutes daily. These are usually activities that individuals that are overweight and have knee pain can do comfortably. Individuals should start off with these types of non-weight bearing exercises and once they start losing weight and feeling better they can shift to doing other types of exercises.
