Effects of Exercise and Education in Patients With Chronic Pain After Total Knee Replacement

"60min. of neuromuscular exercises (NEMEX-TJR) training two times a week for 3 months (12 weeks, 24 sessions). Physiotherapists will instruct and supervise the participants during the neuromuscular exercises. The aim of the neuromuscular exercise program is to restore normal movement, improve sensorimotor control, re-establishing normal motor program strategies and muscle activation.~60min. of pain neuroscience education at the beginning of intervention period and after 6 weeks. Both sessions will take 60min. and will be conducted by physiotherapists. The aim of the pain neuroscience education is to increase the pain neuroscience knowledge of the patients leading to a better understanding of their chronic pain and thereby engaging the patients in the treatment of their chronic pain and impaired function."
