Knee Clinic
Knee pain is one of the most common reasons people limit their walking, avoid stairs or give up the activities they enjoy. It affects young athletes with ligament injuries, working adults with overuse pain and older people with arthritis. Left unmanaged, a painful knee leads to weak muscles, which in turn leads to more pain.
The Knee Clinic at Physiovista Healthcare Network provides structured, evidence-based physiotherapy for every knee condition, from sprains and ligament tears to arthritis and knee replacement. Our goal is to reduce pain, rebuild strength and get you back to confident movement.
About Our Knee Clinic
The knee is a hinge joint stabilised by four major ligaments, two cartilage menisci, the kneecap and the large muscles of the thigh and calf. Because it sits between the hip and the ankle, the knee often suffers from problems elsewhere, such as weak hips, flat feet or poor landing and running mechanics.
At our knee clinic, we assess the knee together with the hip, ankle and foot, along with your strength, balance and movement patterns. Our approach is non-surgical first, combining manual therapy, strengthening, neuromuscular training and technology. For those who need surgery, we offer pre-operative preparation and criteria-based rehabilitation that guides each stage of return to activity.

Why Choose Physiovista for Knee Care?
What to Expect at Your First Knee Visit
Your first appointment usually lasts 45 to 60 minutes. We discuss how the problem started, examine swelling, stability and movement, and watch you squat, step and walk. Please wear shorts or loose trousers and bring any X-ray, MRI or surgical reports along with the shoes you use most.
Self-care tips: keep moving gently rather than resting fully, avoid deep squatting and kneeling if they provoke pain, use stairs one step at a time if needed, wear supportive footwear and strengthen your thighs and hips consistently, as these muscles protect your knees.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, for many people. Strengthening, weight management, activity modification and education can reduce pain and improve walking. A knee replacement is considered when pain and disability are severe despite these measures.
No. The right exercise nourishes the joint and strengthens protective muscles. Avoiding movement usually makes knees stiffer and weaker.
Not always. Some people do well with strengthening and neuromuscular training, especially if they are less active. Those who play pivoting sports often choose reconstruction. We will help you decide with your surgeon.
Usually the day of or the day after surgery. Early movement and walking help recovery and reduce complications.
Most people achieve good function within about three months, though strength and endurance keep improving for up to a year.
Pain on stairs is common in patellofemoral pain and arthritis. Strengthening the hips and thighs and correcting movement patterns often reduces it.
A hot, red, swollen knee with fever, or an injury where you cannot bear weight or the knee looks deformed, needs urgent medical attention.
A brace can give short-term support and confidence after injury or surgery, or relieve arthritis pain on activity. It should not replace strengthening, because strong muscles are the best long-term support for your knee.
