I wish I had seen this before or right after I had my knee replacement. I wasn't doing too good with physical therapy at home but I found this on Amazon & everything changed. Made it a lot easier to do my therapy exercises and I'm on my way to completely healing. Highly recommend if you have knee surgery!

Heel Slide Board
A low-friction surface so your heel glides instead of sticking during heel slides, in bed or on the couch, and on the floor once your PT clears you for it.

EquipCore Heel Slide Board: 4.5β from 34 Amazon ratings (as of Sept 2026)
I like it! Perfect for heel slides after total knee replacement. Good size yet sturdy and light weight. I don't need a heavy, bulky piece of solid wood, this does the job!
It was great! It was better and easier to use than the one they use at physical therapy. Excellent!
Designed by a DPT
I built this kit because every TKR patient I treated got sent home with a printed exercise sheet and zero equipment. These are the three tools I'd hand each of them if I could.

Physical Therapy After Knee Replacement
How PT after knee replacement works, phase by phase.
Your Surgeon Gave You 3 Goals
The Knee Replacement Recovery Kit covers all three.
Goal 1
Get It Straight
The KneEXT roller props your heel for prolonged stretches that help you work toward a fully straight knee. The stretch strap helps with tight hamstrings and calves that resist straightening.
Goal 2
Get It Bending
The Heel Slide Board cuts the friction so your heel glides smoothly during heel slides. The stretch strap adds gentle assisted pulls to help your bend.
Goal 3
Fire the Quad
The KneEXT roller is the right height for short arc quads, a go-to early exercise for waking up your quadriceps after surgery.

Why these specific tools
Designed for post-op recovery, not generic stretching
KneEXT Foam Roll
Helps you work toward full extension
Soft floor pads collapse under your leg's weight, which is why generic foam rollers fail at extension stretches. The KneEXT is high-density EVA β it holds shape so the stretch goes into your knee, not the foam.

Heel Slide Board
Cuts friction for heel slides
A bath towel or bedsheet doesn't really slide. Your heel sticks, and your knee skips through the range you're trying to reach. The board's slick surface lets your heel glide in bed or on the couch, and on the floor once your PT clears you for floor work.
Weeks 0β12
Stretch Strap
Assisted stretches for ROM and quad activation
Bedsheet strips and bath towels stretch under load, which is exactly what you're fighting during an assisted stretch. The non-elastic 10-loop strap holds its tension, and the loops let you pick the grip that gives you leverage where you need it.
