Knee pain, stiffness or instability affecting your walking, exercise or daily life?

Knee Pain

Knee pain is very common and can affect people of all ages. It may develop gradually through overload or movement changes, or suddenly after injury.

Knee pain can be linked to tendon and ligament overload, cartilage or joint irritation, muscle weakness, or biomechanical factors from the foot and lower limb.

Because there are many possible causes, accurate assessment is essential before treatment begins.

Knee Pain may be felt:

At the front of the knee

Around or behind the kneecap

On the inside or outside of the knee

Deep within the joint

how we treat it

At Assure Health Clinic, knee pain is always assessed before treatment begins. Your care pathway depends on what is driving your symptoms.

Some knee pain is influenced by foot posture, gait and lower-limb biomechanics and may be best led by a podiatrist. Other presentations are driven more by strength, control, injury or movement dysfunction and are best led by a physiotherapist.

In many cases, both disciplines work together.

Your assessment may include:

Detailed history of symptoms, activity and injury

Examination of the knee joint and surrounding tissues

Strength, flexibility and control testing

Gait and movement analysis

Assessment of foot posture and lower-limb alignment

Functional tests relevant to work or sport

Treatment is designed to address both the knee and any contributing factors from elsewhere in the lower limb.

Once the cause is identified, your personalised treatment plan may include:

Targeted physiotherapy rehabilitation and strengthening

Shockwave therapy where clinically appropriate

Movement retraining and return-to-activity guidance

Hands-on therapy and soft tissue techniques

Orthoses or biomechanical interventions where indicated

Load management and injury prevention strategies
