Of course I've been trying to strengthen the knee and work on balance. I had a large medial menicsus tear at the posterior horn which was limiting my rehab. It has since been cleaned up(but still no ACL), so i can start rehab again.

I hadn't looked into the literature to find out what was best evidence. That's why I was asking the forum. Thanks for your input.

And thanks for the ideas about proprioceptive input. I've been thinking along those lines myself, since I am generally hypermobile. I was also running into trouble with ADLs, being a mom of 2 small kids, no matter how much training I would do, something would always trip me up. Like when the wave takes my lower leg in one direction while I'm grabbing for my drowning 4 year old in the other direction. I guess in essence I'm saying that motor control training is effective for intended movement only, but doesn't protect against passive forces. How do you replace joint position sense when the ligament is slack and the mechanoreceptors aren't stimulated?

I suppose that now the meniscus tear is gone, I won't have flare-ups from non-weightbearing twists.
