Knee
Pain
Knee pain can make everyday activities — like walking, climbing stairs, or getting in and out of the car — frustrating and uncomfortable. It’s one of the most common joint complaints, affecting people of all ages. In fact, studies show that about 1 in 4 adults over 55 experience knee pain, with sports injuries and arthritis being leading causes across all age groups.
Whether you’ve developed pain gradually or had a recent injury, knee issues can limit your mobility, affect your fitness, and reduce your confidence to stay active.
Common causes of
knee Pain?
- Overuse injuries – such as tendonitis or runner’s knee
- Ligament or cartilage injuries – often caused by sport or sudden twisting movements
- Arthritis – particularly osteoarthritis in older adults
- Muscle imbalances – from weak hips, glutes or tight muscles affecting knee tracking
- Post-surgical rehab – including ACL reconstruction, meniscus repairs or total knee replacements
Whether your pain is due to injury, wear and tear, or something else, the right physiotherapy approach can help you recover and keep moving with confidence.
Would highly recommend Rhys! Great at what he does and makes you feel really comfortable.
I came with a niggling knee injury and after a few weeks with hands on physio and rehab in the gym I was back to my best. I was making a 40-45 minute journey to get to the clinic an it was totally worth it.
