Knee Pain & Rehabilitation

Knee pain can affect walking, stairs, kneeling and sport. We assess the knee and the way you move to build a rehabilitation plan that restores strength, control and confidence.

Guided step-up knee rehabilitation exercise

What it is

Knee pain can relate to the joint surfaces, soft tissues, tendons or movement mechanics, and is influenced by load, strength and activity.

Why it may be considered

Assessment identifies the likely contributors and stage, which guides a targeted rehabilitation programme rather than generic advice.

Common reasons people seek assessment

These are reasons to seek a professional assessment — not a promise that a specific treatment will suit everyone.

Guided hip rehabilitation exercise

How it generally works

Rehabilitation usually focuses on progressive strengthening and movement control, supported by manual therapy, activity guidance and suitable modalities. Where appropriate and available, knee decompression may be discussed.

What an appointment may involve

1

Discussion of symptoms, activity and history.

2

Assessment of knee movement, strength and gait.

3

A progressive rehabilitation plan.

4

Treatment, exercise and review.

Precautions & when further assessment is needed

Seek medical review for a knee that is hot, markedly swollen, locked, giving way, or painful after significant trauma. Some presentations benefit from imaging or specialist input, which we will advise on.

Frequently asked questions

Guided exercise and load management are widely recommended for knee osteoarthritis and can help many people manage symptoms and function.

Usually a graded approach is better than stopping entirely; your plan will set safe, progressive activity.
