Description

Place one hand on the inner side of the thigh, near the knee, and the other hand on the outer side of the lower leg, at the level of the tibia and fibula. Keep your hands close to the joint and point your forearms in the direction of the push, so that they are parallel. With both hands, create a slight glide by pushing the thigh and the lower leg in opposite directions, then maintain this pressure while you slowly extend the knee. Then return to the starting position while keeping the glide. The movement should remain pain-free and controlled.
