How exercises can help ACL tears recover without surgery

How Exercises Can Help ACL Tear Recovery Without Surgery

Exercises are a powerful part of recovering from an ACL tear without surgery, especially for partial tears or when surgery isn’t necessary. They work by:

Strengthening Muscles around the knee, including quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes, which improves stability and reduces stress on the torn ligament.

Restoring Range of Motion to prevent stiffness and maintain normal knee movement.

Improving Balance and Proprioception so the knee can sense its position and prevent giving way.

Enhancing Functional Stability through targeted drills that mimic daily and sports activities.

Reducing Pain and Swelling by promoting blood flow and healing through controlled movement.
