Glad program

To promote full clinical recovery from a joint replacement procedure, it is recommended that participation in GLA:D® be avoided for 12 months following the procedure unless otherwise indicated by your treating specialist.

If you have had total joint replacements in all hips and knees, the GLA:D® program is not suitable, and your treating physiotherapist or accredited exercise physiologist is best placed to guide you on alternative exercise therapy.
