Adult Cartoon Coloring Book Now Available for Knee Replacement Patients
Michelle Stiles, PT, MS is the creator of "No Days To Waste", a program dedicated to empowering patients with proven solutions to knee replacement recovery. She is the inventor of the FLEX Bar and lifelong advocate for personal responsibility in maintaining personal health and wellness.
(firmenpresse) - A fascinating new entry into the adult coloring book market is [Color And Laugh Your Way Through Knee Replacement Recovery](http://www.amazon.com/Color-Laugh-Through-Replacement-Recovery/dp/1518841740/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1446947768&sr=8-6&keywords=knee+replacement+gifts). Its uniqueness lies in its combined emphasis on coloring as therapeutic stress relief and the use of humor as good medicine.
Officially, the American Lung Association recommends 52 stress reducers and coloring hits a few of them: disconnecting from phones, focusing on one thing at a time, simplifying and doing something enjoyable.
Adult coloring allows those who aren''t as artistically gifted to engage in a creative process and reap the therapeutic benefits of art therapy.
€œAdult coloring is a growing trend and consumers are really taking to the idea," said Matthew Lore of The Experiment Publishing group. €œNot only is it calming and good for your health, it''s just fun! The demand is increasing exponentially as the word spreads."
Meanwhile according to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America, researchers have conducted studies to explore the impact of laughter on health. After evaluating participants before and after a humorous event (i.e., a comedy video), studies have concluded that episodes of laughter helped to reduce pain, decrease stress-related hormones and boost the immune system in participants.
Currently, there are over 600,000 knee replacements per year in the United States alone and that number continues to rise each year. Michelle Stiles, a physical therapist and the author of the best selling Amazon book, "Fast Track Your Recovery From a Total Knee Replacement: How to Eliminate Pain and Pain Medicine The Quickest Way Possible", saw the possibilities of combining the two therapeutic activities specifically for [knee replacement patients](http://totalkneereplacementrecovery.net) who experience significant discomfort and stress during the recovery period.
Expert illustrator, Dave Allred was hired to bring the irreverently humorous scenarios to life: scenarios that help patients turn the table on their frustrations and challenges and instead poke fun at them. While taking pain medication generally limits more robust intellectual activities like reading and doing work at home, patients have found that coloring pages is a suitable alternative that provides hours of calming diversionary activity.
€œThe initial response to the cartoon coloring book has been fantastic", noted Stiles. Not only do patients enjoy it but caregivers get a big kick out of the book as well. They have also been popular as gifts for colleagues, friends and relatives about to have surgery.
