Knee injuries

Understanding the true cause of knee pain

In many cases, knee pain isn't solely caused by an issue in the knee itself. Because the knee sits between the hip above and the ankle and foot below, it often compensates for problems higher or lower in the movement chain.

A lack of stability, mobility, or control in these surrounding joints can put excess strain on the knee — leading to pain, inflammation, and stiffness over time. Our holistic assessment process ensures we identify the root cause of your knee pain, not just the symptoms.

Common knee pain symptoms

If you're experiencing any of the following, it's time to get assessed by one of our physiotherapists:

  • Swelling or inflammation
  • Warmth or tenderness
  • Reduced mobility or stiffness
  • Instability or giving way
  • Popping, grinding, or crunching noises

Our approach to knee rehabilitation

We take a comprehensive and evidence-based approach to treating knee pain. We'll assess how your hips, ankles, and feet are influencing your knee movement, and develop a personalised rehabilitation plan focused on restoring strength, stability, and balance throughout your lower limb.

We use advanced assessment tools, targeted manual therapy, and progressive exercise rehabilitation to help you recover fully and prevent future flare-ups.
