How can we help?

Wide Range Of Techniques 

We work using hands-on manual techniques to reduce the inflammation and swelling of the ligaments around the knee as well as to help with the its mobility. We can also employ a range of other techniques such as ultrasound therapy, kinesio taping and acupuncture to help manage pain levels and speed up recovery.

Longer-Term Recovery

Longer-term knee problems involving weakness in the tendons surrounding the joint may be best treated with shockwave therapy.  You will also be advised on exercises, stretches, icing etc. to help facilitate the recovery and rehabilitation of your knee.

Serious Sprains

For serious knee injuries – such as ligamentous tears or ruptures – we may need to refer you for further tests in order to ascertain the level of damage and communicate with a specialist to determine the prognosis and optimal treatment plan.
