How We Treat Knee Pain
Treatment is based on the cause of your symptoms and may include hands-on therapy, exercise-based rehabilitation and movement advice to improve strength, control and joint function.
Physiotherapy for Knee Pain
Physiotherapy helps assess how the knee joint, muscles and surrounding structures are working together. Treatment may include mobility work, strengthening exercises and manual therapy to reduce pain and improve movement.
Sports Therapy & Rehabilitation
Sports therapy focuses on improving strength, stability and movement patterns that may contribute to knee pain. Rehabilitation programmes are designed to support recovery, improve confidence and reduce the risk of symptoms returning.
Massage Therapy for Muscular Knee Pain
Where muscular tightness in the quads, hamstrings, calves or surrounding tissues contributes to symptoms, treatments such as sports massage and deep tissue massage may help reduce restriction and improve comfort.
