Knee osteoarthritis is wear-related pain and stiffness in the knee and other joints, common after 50. Physiotherapy does not reverse the joint changes, but it eases pain, rebuilds strength around the joint, and steadies your walking so you stay mobile and independent through daily life.
We start where it hurts: hands-on manual therapy and pain-easing modalities to calm the joint and reduce stiffness, so the knee moves more freely before we ask more of it.
Graded strengthening for the quadriceps and hips offloads the joint, paired with balance and gait work so walking feels surer. Each step is progressed at the pace your joint tolerates, not faster.
We set practical guidance on how much to do and when, so daily activity supports the joint instead of flaring it. The aim is to keep you mobile and self-managing at home, with periodic review to adjust.
Physiotherapy manages the symptoms and the function of knee osteoarthritis: easing pain, building the strength and balance that protect the joint, and guiding your activity so you stay mobile. It supports how you live with the joint; it does not reverse the underlying joint changes.
Physiotherapy handles the day-to-day symptoms and movement. Where the joint damage is advanced and surgery is being considered, that decision sits with an orthopaedic surgeon, not with us. We coordinate with your orthopaedic doctor and share our findings so the choice is made on the full picture.
How our care network worksNo. Physiotherapy does not reverse the joint changes, and we will not tell you otherwise. What it does, reliably, is ease the pain and stiffness and keep the joint strong and usable, so you stay mobile and independent.
Done at the right load, no. We progress strengthening at the pace your joint tolerates, not faster, and adjust at each review. Some days need less, we will tell you which on the visit, not on the website.
That call belongs to an orthopaedic surgeon, not to physiotherapy. Many people manage well without it. If surgery is on the table, we coordinate with your orthopaedic doctor and share what we see.
