Build your own amazing recovery

Cover of Aussie Knee Replacement Recovery by Tracy Connolly

The surgery gives you a new knee.
What you do next makes all the difference.

You've read the hospital pamphlet. You know about ice, elevation and doing your exercises. This is the next book you want to read.

After thirty-four years of hockey injuries, failed fixes and tears in surgeons' offices, Tracy Connolly finally got her knee replacement, and she threw everything she had at her recovery.

Discover how she used frozen water bottles, a sheet of cardboard as a scorecard, videoing for her imaginary fans and a fair bit of swearing to get it done. Every idea in this book is something she actually did to turn a good outcome into a great one.

"When my patients wonder what their TKR outcome could be like, I tell them about my mum."
Jack Connolly, physiotherapist (and Tracy's son)
