Book Reviews of The Knee Crisis Handbook: Understanding Pain, Preventing Trauma, Recovering from Knee Injury, and Building Healthy Knees for Life

Book Review: Covers it ALL!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

This has everything - surgery, sports, special knee exercises, how to determine your risk, tests the docs will do, and more. How to reduce your risk, risky sports & what to do if you still want to play. Also tells you when you shouldn't play. Special attention to women's higher risk of knee injury, why it occurs, and what to do... I am using the exercises to strengthen my knees. Exercises well organized & very detailed. General knee health routine, stretching routine, ACL injury routine, balance exercises, weight bearing exercises (& don't need any fancy equipment either - just a small ball or yoga block!) Have already recommended it to 2 other knee injured people.
