December 27 2025
The start of a new year is a powerful time for reflection and intention. As we set goals for 2026, we often focus on improving our habits, careers, and overall well-being. But what about the foundation that supports all our ambitions: our physical health? If persistent knee discomfort has been holding you back, making orthopaedic wellness a priority can be one of the most impactful resolutions you make. It's a commitment to restoring your mobility, rediscovering comfort, and making meaningful progress toward the active life you deserve.
This year, consider setting a goal that goes beyond the usual resolutions. Imagine a year where you can walk, hike, or play with your grandchildren without a second thought about knee aches. At Sagewell Orthopaedics, we believe that personalized intentions deserve personalized care. Advanced technologies like the CORI◊ Robotics-Assisted Surgical System are transforming knee replacement, making it more aligned with individual goals and supporting a recovery centered on your unique needs.
Why Your Knee Health Should Be a 2026 Goal
For many, knee discomfort isn't just a minor inconvenience; it's a barrier that limits daily activities and diminishes quality of life. It can prevent you from enjoying hobbies, staying active, and even performing simple tasks with ease. Making knee health a priority for the new year is an investment in your freedom and future.
Reclaim Your Active Lifestyle
Think about the activities you love. Are they being compromised by knee aches? Whether it's morning walks, family activities, or travel, resolving to address your knee discomfort means taking the first step toward reclaiming those passions. Setting a goal for better knee health is about looking forward to a more active and fulfilling 2026.
Boost Your Overall Well-being
Chronic discomfort can have a ripple effect on your mental and emotional health. It can be draining, frustrating, and isolating. By taking proactive steps, you're not just treating a joint; you're nurturing your entire sense of well-being. A resolution focused on orthopaedic wellness can lead to renewed energy, a more positive outlook, and greater confidence.
Set the Stage for Long-Term Success
Unlike short-lived resolutions, a commitment to your joint health has lasting benefits. By addressing issues now, you are setting the stage for years of potentially improved mobility and comfort. It's a forward-thinking goal that empowers you to live life on your terms, today and in the future.
How Technology Supports Your Personal Health Goals
Achieving your wellness goals may be easier when you have the right support. In modern orthopaedics, that support often comes from innovative technology designed to personalize care and may help enhance surgical outcomes. The CORI◊ Robotics-Assisted Surgical System is a prime example of how advanced tools may help surgeons support their patients' individual recovery journeys.
Personalized Care for Individualized Intentions
Your goals are unique, and your treatment plan should be too. The CORI◊ Surgical System is designed to help surgeons tailor knee replacement procedures to each patient's specific anatomy. It is a handheld robotics-assisted device that empowers the surgeon with an added layer of precision for both partial and total knee replacements.
This starts with creating a customized 3D digital model of your knee during surgery. This detailed, real-time map allows the surgeon to plan the procedure with exceptional accuracy, ensuring the implant size and position are optimized for your body. This personalized approach means your procedure is designed to align with your knee's natural function.
A Smarter, More Efficient Process
A significant advantage of the CORI◊ system is that it does not require a pre-operative CT scan. Traditional methods sometimes rely on this extra step, but the CORI◊ system’s smart digital mapping technology makes it unnecessary. This streamlines the surgical process and may help make your journey more efficient from the start.
Precision for a Natural Feel
One important goal of any knee procedure is to help restore comfortable movement. The CORI◊ system provides the surgeon with precise feedback more than 300 times per second, which may help support accurate removal of damaged bone surfaces and the placement of the new implant. This level of accuracy is intended to help balance the joint and position it to function as naturally as possible. By combining the surgeon’s skill with robotic precision, the CORI◊ system may help support the goal of a more consistent and natural-feeling result.
Make 2026 Your Year for Progress
As you outline your ambitions for the coming year, don’t let knee discomfort limit your possibilities. Consider making a resolution to explore your options and take steps toward orthopaedic wellness. A new year offers a fresh start, and with the right support and technology, you may be able to make meaningful progress toward greater comfort and mobility.
