Simply untrue.

Therapy is crucial of course. But the machine was optional. He doesn't even think it's necessary with adherence to proper therapy.

I had fantastic results with my TKR done by Dr. Duke. Home second day. Minimal pain. Golfing in three weeks. Softball shortly thereafter. Three years later still going strong.
