PIRPAG Exercises

These are core exercises that can be completed following a below-knee or above-knee amputation.

If you are unsure what to do, please do not attempt the exercises, but contact your Physiotherapist for advice.

Try aiming to do up to 10 of each exercise, up to twice a day. If you experience any pain or discomfort stop doing the exercises and seek advice from a Physiotherapist.

If you require exercises for a different level of amputation, please ask a Physiotherapist.
