How it works
From sore to strong, one band at a time.
Every plan runs in four phases. The load only goes up when your body says it’s ready — the same way you’d move from a light band to a heavy one.
-
01
Weeks 1–2
Load: Light
Calm it down
Settle the pain with hands-on care and gentle movement, so you can sleep, sit, and walk without bracing.
-
02
Weeks 2–4
Load: Medium
Get it moving
Win back range, joint by joint — measured every visit, so you can see the degrees come back.
-
03
Weeks 4–8
Load: Heavy
Build it strong
Progressive loading at the clinic and a short home program, added to only when you're ready.
-
04
Week 8 on
Load: Extra heavy
Back to your thing
Practice the exact thing you came in for — the run, the lift, the stairs, the grandkids — then graduate.
Your first visit, minute by minute.
Fifty-five minutes, one therapist, no hand-offs to an aide. Here’s where the time goes.

Three or four exercises for home, how often to come in, and when you should feel a difference.
What patients say
I came in unable to go down stairs without holding the rail. Twelve weeks later I ran my first 10K since the surgery. Dana told me exactly what each week was for, and she was right every time.
