Knee Pain Treatment Melbourne
ACL injuries, runner's knee, osteoarthritis, meniscus tears. We diagnose the cause and build a rehabilitation plan that gets you back to full function.
Knee Rehabilitation Specialists
Knee pain affects people of all ages, from young athletes recovering from ACL injuries to older adults managing osteoarthritis. The key to effective treatment is accurate diagnosis and a rehabilitation programme that addresses the specific cause, not just the symptoms.
At Injury Active Clinic, our physiotherapists and exercise physiologists work together to provide integrated knee rehabilitation. We combine hands-on treatment with progressive strength and conditioning to restore function, reduce pain, and build the resilience needed to prevent recurrence.
Common Causes
Tears or sprains of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), medial collateral ligament (MCL), or other knee ligaments, common in sports involving pivoting and jumping.
Damage to the cartilage discs (menisci) inside the knee, causing pain, swelling, clicking, and sometimes locking of the joint.
Pain around or behind the kneecap (patella), often called runner's knee, caused by abnormal patellar tracking and muscle imbalances.
Overuse injury to the patellar tendon (jumper's knee) causing pain below the kneecap, common in athletes who run, jump, or squat.
Inflammation of the iliotibial band where it crosses the outer knee, causing sharp pain on the outside of the knee during running or cycling.
Age-related degeneration of knee cartilage causing chronic pain, stiffness, and swelling, highly responsive to exercise physiology and manual therapy.
Our Approach
Manual therapy, taping, and progressive rehabilitation programmes for all knee conditions, from acute injuries to post-surgical recovery.
