Is Knee Pain Holding You Back?
If stairs, hills, long walks, or squats have become painful or uncertain, you're not alone and you're not stuck. Many people feel their knee is stiff, weak, or "bone-on-bone" and fear it's only downhill from here. Whether you're recovering from injury, managing arthritis, or trying to stay active and avoid surgery, this approach gives you a new way forward.
This service is ideal if you:
- Are an active adult (often 55–75) who wants to keep walking, gardening, golfing or travelling
- Struggle with knee stiffness, aching, or pain on stairs, squatting, kneeling or walking
- Have been told it's arthritis or bone-on-bone and you’re worried about surgery
- Want a smarter recovery after an injury
- Tried physio, braces, YouTube exercises, or medications with short-lived results
- Feel stuck in a cycle of rest–flare–repeat
Not Just the Knee
Your knee sits between your hip and foot and it rarely misbehaves on its own. This service blends expert physiotherapy and Whole-Body Alignment to address the root causes of load, compensation, and pain.
We assess:
- Local knee issues (ligament, meniscus, tendon, joint, nerve)
- Whole-leg alignment: how your hip, knee, ankle and foot share the load
- Everyday movements: stairs, walking, standing, squatting, sitting
- Lifestyle, work, and goals so your care fits real life
We build a tailored plan using:
- Physio-informed rehab strategies (diagnosis, referral, hands-on where needed)
- Whole-Body Alignment exercises to reprogram how your body moves
- Education and coaching so you understand what helps and what doesn’t

- Visual tools and education to help you understand what’s happening
And it’s delivered with care, collaboration and realism, no gimmicks, no empty promises.
