I guess it depends on what’s wrong with your knee. One thing I can suggest is starting with a chi gong (qigong) exercise that works the knee gently. and then moving into tai chi. Tai chi really strengthens the muscles around the knee and there are a couple of other simple exercises that can help. Tai chi has really helped my knees. I’ll choose a chi gong exercise that targets the knees and then a make a short video to post here over the next week.

If the doctor thought physical therapy might help you avoid knee surgery then I would definitely go this direction first. I also have an ebook for sale on my site that was written by a woman who healed her knee naturally. That’s why I have that book in my store and I highly recommend it.

I’ve been reading this for awhile now and have heard you talking about tai chi and it’s benefits for several years. Here’s my question. My knee isn’t getting better, and my upcoming surgery doesn’t have high expectations. I’ve been going through physical therapy to strengthen it, but I’m still at the point where I’m not allowed to run and my knee’s not getting much strong. Do you think something like tai chi could help or hurt? Any thoughts?

Thanks
