Questions, answered

Start with confidence.

Choose the program for the joint being replaced, then follow the four-week pathway at your own pace.

When should I start the prehab program?+

The pathway is designed to begin four weeks before surgery, once your surgeon has cleared you for exercise. If your procedure is sooner, you can still use the remaining time to practice key movements and organize your home.

Does this replace in-person physical therapy?+

No. JointReady is educational guidance and does not replace individualized evaluation, medical care, or your surgeon’s and physical therapist’s instructions.

What equipment will I need?+

Most sessions use a stable chair, a countertop, and simple household space. Optional resistance bands or light weights can be added later.

Can I use the program on my phone?+

Yes. The program is designed for phone, tablet, and computer access so you can follow it where you exercise.

Is the program personalized to me?+

No. JointReady is a self-guided educational program and does not include an individual evaluation, customized exercise prescription, or one-on-one physical therapy support.

What if my surgeon gives me different instructions?+

Always follow the restrictions and progression given by your surgeon and treating rehabilitation team. Their individualized guidance takes priority.

What happens after surgery?+

JointReady is a pre-op-only program. After surgery, follow the individualized instructions provided by your surgeon and rehabilitation team.
