Baker's Cyst Physical Therapy

A physical therapy program can help to relieve the symptoms of your Baker's Cyst, as well as address the underlying injury that caused the cyst to develop.

Physical therapy programs for Baker's Cysts differ depending on how much pain the person is in, whether the Baker's Cyst is ruptured or intact, and how much the Baker's Cyst affects the person's mobility.

Cold compression, massage, taping and electrical stimulation are all common treatment methods used in physical therapy. These methods are mainly designed to help with the symptoms of pain and swelling that come with a Baker's Cyst.

What do you recommend for healing a torn meniscus?


A customer asked, "Which products do you recommend for healing a torn meniscus?"


Re: What do you recommend for healing a torn meniscus?


To heal a torn meniscus, you need rest, cold therapy, and increased blood flow - all used at the correct time.

The ColdCure will reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation, and can be used for 20 minutes on and 20 minutes off at a time. Plenty of rest will also reduce inflammation, and give your meniscus an opportunity to heal.

The BFST will increase your circulation over time, which leads to healing the soft tissue in the entire area that you treat. It helps to get oxygen and nutrients to the source of your pain, and to heal the meniscus over time.

Using KB Tape helps to support and stabilize your knee, and should be worn any time you're walking around or being active to prevent reinjury.

The Knee Recovery Pack, which can be found at the link below, includes everything we'd recommend to accelerate your healing and heal your torn meniscus for good.
