Knee
Pain.

The knee is the most commonly injured joint in the body. Whether you have a fresh ACL tear, chronic patellofemoral pain, or end-stage osteoarthritis awaiting replacement, our Surrey physiotherapists deliver evidence-based treatment tailored to your specific pathology and goals.

Causes & Conditions

Understanding
your knee.

Knee pain is rarely simple — it involves the interplay of the femur, tibia, patella, four ligaments, two menisci, cartilage, and over a dozen muscles. Accurate diagnosis separates conditions that respond well to physiotherapy from those that require surgical intervention.

Even surgical conditions — ACL tears, meniscus repairs, knee replacements — require physiotherapy before and after surgery to achieve the best outcomes. Pre-operative strengthening consistently reduces recovery time and improves post-surgical function.

  • Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear — the most common sports-related knee injury
  • Medial and lateral meniscus tears — acute and degenerative, with or without surgery
  • Patellofemoral pain syndrome — runner’s knee causing anterior knee pain with activity
  • Iliotibial band syndrome — lateral knee pain in runners and cyclists
  • Knee osteoarthritis — cartilage breakdown causing pain, stiffness, and swelling
  • Patellar tendinopathy — jumper’s knee from repetitive loading of the patellar tendon
  • MCL and LCL sprains — medial and lateral collateral ligament injuries
  • Osgood-Schlatter disease — growth plate irritation at the tibial tuberosity in adolescents
  • PCL injuries — posterior cruciate ligament tears from direct impact
  • Post-total knee replacement rehabilitation — structured recovery after arthroplasty
Our Treatment

Precision knee
rehab.

Manual Therapy

Patella mobilization, tibiofemoral joint mobilization, and soft tissue therapy to restore normal knee mechanics and reduce pain.

ACL Rehabilitation

Protocol-based ACL rehab from surgery to return to sport — strength, neuromuscular control, and confidence progressively restored.

Class IV Laser

Reduces joint inflammation and accelerates cartilage and tendon healing — particularly effective for osteoarthritis and tendinopathy.

Focused Shockwave

Patellar tendinopathy and calcific deposits — shockwave stimulates the repair response in chronically injured tissue.

Active Rehabilitation

Hip and knee strengthening, proprioception training, and sport-specific conditioning for full return to activity.

Custom Orthotics

Biomechanical correction of foot and ankle mechanics that drive patellofemoral and IT band conditions.

What to Expect

From assessment
to return to sport.

Your assessment includes gait analysis, knee range of motion, strength testing, ligament stability tests, and a functional movement screen. We establish a clear diagnosis and timeline so you know exactly what to expect at every stage.

Acute knee injuries typically respond in 4–8 sessions. Post-surgical rehabilitation follows surgeon-specific protocols, typically 12–24 weeks for ACL reconstruction and 6–12 weeks for knee replacement.

  • ICBC direct billing for MVA-related knee injuries
  • WorkSafeBC accepted for workplace knee injuries
  • ACL post-operative protocol collaboration with your surgeon
  • Return-to-sport testing using validated functional measures
  • Custom orthotics assessment included when biomechanically indicated
  • No referral required — direct access physiotherapy in BC
