Why exercise bike hire is great for rehabiliation

Did you know that Homegym UK came about as a result of the need of an upright bike hire for a short term in order to recover from a hip operation? The owner couldn’t find any companies to hire a bike from, realised there was a gap in the market and Homegym was created to fill that gap. We often get requests for upright bikes or recumbent bikes as they are ideal for rehabilitation following knee or hip operations. My father-in-law recently had a knee operation as a result of age and a fall earlier in the year. His consultant told him of the importance of keeping mobile (but without over doing it). He used one of our upright exercise bikes on a daily basis to help mobilise his knee without putting too much weight on the joint. It really aided his recovery. With hire periods from as short as 1 month up to 6 months Homegym can help aid your recovery from your operation. We would, however, recommend that you consult with your physician and/or physiotherapist before undertaking any exercise.
