Best Answer

Yes, for someone with a knee injury, ellipticals are better than traditional treadmills or exercising by running or walking. This is because they are very low impact and will not be as harmful to the knee joint.

What is the compensation for knee surgery?

Compensation depends on a variety of factors: * Loss of earnings, including overtime and bonuses * Travel to and from medical appointments * Any medication * Cost of any special equipment or adaptations * Care given by members of your family or others * Damage caused to any of your personal effects But to claim compensation someone else has to be at fault to cause this personal injury. I put an article together a view weeks ago about compensation amounts: * Very severe knee injury: £38,000 - £52,500 * Severe knee injury: £28,500 - £38,000 * Serious Knee injury: £14,750 - £23,500 * Moderate Knee injury: £8,000 - £14,750 * Modest knee injury: up to £7,500 Above is the range of compensation you can receive.
