STAK EXPLAINED
HOW THE STAK TOOL CAN IMPROVE MOBILITY.
WHY IS MY KNEE STIFF?
You may be one of the 20% of patients suffering from arthrofibrosis (stiffness and pain) following the trauma of knee surgery or injury.
Your immune system is overreacting causing scar tissue to be deposited in your knee joint.
The scar tissue will continue to build resulting in severe stiffness, pain and loss of range of movement, impacting severely on your quality of life.
HOW DOES STAK CURE YOUR STIFF KNEE?
The STAK enables you to generate high-intensity stretches which will break down the scar tissue in your knee which is causing you stiffness and pain. Unfortunately, standard physiotherapy exercises do not enable you to generate the intensity of stretch needed to break down the scar tissue.
As the STAK enables you to break down the scar tissue new tissue will form and you will regain your range of movement. The exercises making up the programme will further strengthen your knee, returning optimal function and enabling you to get your life back. You will see improvements in the first few days, and most likely in the first session. We recommend that the treatment continues over 4 to 8 weeks depending on your progress.
A year later patients’ gains are maintained and research has shown an anti-inflammatory effect may be taking place as a result of the STAK Programme.
