Treadmill is definitely not the right choice if your mother is having knee pain but you can consult Ayurvedic physician who also has diploma in diet and nutrition so that your mother can loose weight along with treatment for knee pain. Some ayurvedic medicines work in both these conditions.

Hello, as your mother has knee pain it's not advisable to use any exercise machine which strain on knee. So electronic treadmill won't be helpful for her.
