Normal Motion. Range of motion is typically measured using a tool called a goniometer. Normal ROM at the knee is considered to be 0 degrees of extension (completely straight knee joint) to 135 degrees of flexion (fully bent knee joint).ost functional activities require 0 to 117 degrees of motion at the knee. Walking requires complete knee extension at heel strike and up to 60 degrees of flexion at the initiation of swing phase.
Range-of-motion exercises can help improve a flexion contracture in your knee. People with a flexion contracture of their knee joint can experience mobility problems due to a flexed knee. A flexion contracture occurs when the tissues in your knees thicken after a period of immobilization and prevent your knee from bending. Range-of-motion exercises can help improve movement in your knee joint.
