BoneFoam Zero Degree Knee | Rehab After Knee Replacement, MCL, ACL Surgeries | Helps Improve Extension, Mobility and Flexibility | Recovery Exercises | Made in USA | Graphics May Vary

I never write a review but I had to for this pillow. Recebtly had ACL reconstruction surgery, and my left leg naturally falls to the left. No matter how many pillows I would put, the leg would just give up. It’s amazing how I can take a nap with my whole leg being straight. I know for a fact this pillow will help me with a speedy recovery.

My wife has had 2 knee replacements. Did not have a real comfort hold for leg straighten efforts. This does a good job. i am now using this product for a vascular issue. This elevates my leg while holding it straight. Very comfortable.

Most people said, just roll up a towel and put your foot on that! This product allows you to make sure that your foot is in the correct position to get your knee perfecting straight and aligned, unlike a towel, which you can roll your foot from side to side. My physical therapist was very impressed with this. It's the perfect height to get the exact elevation you need. The foam is soft, yet very firm and supportive. I used this once an hour for the first couple of weeks during the day to work on getting to zero degrees. It really helped.

I refer to this as my “torture pillow”. I am currently pre-TKA but I’ve already lost some extension in the leg so I’m using this preop to help maximize the extension I can get before surgery in hopes that after surgery getting back to full extension will be quicker. It’s no fault of the pillow that my knee hurts during the process so I feel bad for calling it my “torture pillow”. I’m using it on my good (well, not as bad is more like it) leg as well sometimes and it doesn’t hurt at all on that leg. I do find the foam uncomfortable/scratchy on bare skin but use a T-shirt as a pillow case and problem solved.UPDATE I’m still preop, but after a couple of weeks of using the pillow it no longer hurts. At first I could not use if for even 15 minutes without severe discomfort but now I can use it for an hour straight no problem with only slight discomfort. Seems to be working to regain extension in my knee!POSTOP UPDATE I am just shy of six weeks post TKA. Using the pillow for more than a minute at a time has been very painful and challenging, but I have worked my way up to 10 minutes (albeit uncomfortable minutes) and plan to keep working on it. The pillow really helps me get into a stable position to work on my knee extension and I would recommend it to anyone needing to improve their knee extension. I will update again in another few weeks or so.ANOTHER UPDATE just over 3 months postop and it is getting less and less uncomfortable and my leg straightens pretty well. When I’m sitting on the ground with my leg straight out in front of me (without the ZDKP), I still can’t contract the front of my leg hard enough to lift my heel off the ground like I can with my non-surgical leg. I’m hoping continued use of the ZDKP (as well as my strengthening exercises) helps to achieve that. Will do another update in another few months.

My wife found this online and the design seemed well thought and functional. Today is day 6 post surgery and my Physical Therapist came by to help me do exercises and evaluate my progress. He was amazed that my range of motion is already back to zero on the low end. I let him know that most of that had come from using this device, just elevating my leg until the back of the knee was elevated. He had never seen one of these and said it had replaced two or three less comfortable exercises normally used to reach zero. Thank you for a great product that even exceeds the claims on the website!

You can really achieve the same results with a rolled up towel.

I’ve never really written a review but honestly I had to for this. I was having a ton of issues after my ACL surgery with trying to get comfortable. Pillows, towels… nothing seemed to work. I was having issues with my ankle or heel hurting.With the way this thing is cut out, it gives you perfect support around your ankle without causing soreness

1st full day post op from total knee replacement.Works great to hold foot straight. My foot narural falls to the right and this works wonderfully to keep it steady.
