I started pre-op PT today at a new facility because I chose a different OS than the one whose PT facility I've been going to since January, 2019.
In the course of off-handed discussion with the new PT She mentioned that the use of a recliner was discouraged by some of the docs in the practice I'm now using post surgery. I was quite surprised as, on the suggestion of the original OS I consulted that a recliner would aid my post-op recovery, I bought an expensive one that is being delivered to my home in 3 weeks.
I'll call my new OS tomorrow to verify what the new PT stated, but was wondering about experiences any of you have had post TKR surgery using a recliner.
