Good afternoon @deedar. I am pleased that I can say...."Yes!", the MFR therapy worked to relieve the scar tissue. That was my real-life introduction to this treatment. Hold your horses though......it took some time. I started in October with one session a week and two therapists. One of them just worked on the knee. It took about six weeks of therapy supported by at-home Yoga every day.
I am now 8 days after this current surgery and we are paying close attention to any evidence of arthrofibrosis and scar tissue of any kind. Today is my first day walking with just a cane.....no walker. I am just walking around the house.....no marathons yet.
Please let me know how you have decided to treat your knee. What works best?
