Neuromuscular Exercise as Treatment of Degenerative Knee Disease

In Brief Exercise is recommended as first-line treatment of degenerative knee disease. Our hypothesis is that neuromuscular exercise is feasible and at least as effective as traditionally used strength or aerobic training but aims to target more closely the sensorimotor deficiencies and functional instability associated with the degenerative knee disease than traditionally used training methods. Current data suggest that the effect of neuromuscular exercise on pain and function is comparable to the effects seen from other forms of exercise.
