16 sie 2023 · You can assess your knee flexion and extension at home using a goniometer or a phone app meant to simulate a goniometer. If you don’t have either of these tools, you can also estimate your knee flexion and extension using your fingers and a measuring tape.

Normative values for a normal range of motion for the knee generally range from 0º (full extension) to around 130º (full flexion) . The functional ability to achieve these ranges varies, making it essential to consider both age and gender when assessing knee mobility.
Here we will look at the different types of knee range of motion, the normal ranges of motion, how much range is required for different functional activities, how to measure knee ROM, what restricts range of motion and how to increase range of motion.
pronation and knee flexion with internal rotation. Table 4.1 details common injuries associated with each distortion, as well as overactive and underactive muscles; Table 4.2 provides
Each joint has a normal ROM range of values, while each person has a different amount of ability to achieve it. Below are generally accepted values for a normal ROM for some individual joints as measured in degrees: Table 1. Typical Joint Ranges [1]
