Physiotherapy assessment of the knee

I booked an appointment with Shay as I was having issues with my knee a couple of weeks before a planned walking holiday in Portugal.

Shay treated my knee, provided advice and gave me some very doable exercises so I felt I was as prepared as I could be.

Thanks to the treatment and exercises I really enjoyed the experience and managed 76km of gruelling walking in deep sand, while going up and down steep descents without getting even a twinge.   J- (Warrington Patient)

Common Knee Problems We Treat

Knee pain can develop for many different reasons, including overuse, muscle weakness, arthritis or an injury. At One Stop Physiotherapy in Warrington, we assess your symptoms, movement and strength to understand what may be contributing to your knee pain and create a treatment and rehabilitation plan tailored to you.

​

We commonly help patients with:

​

  • Knee arthritis – pain, stiffness and reduced mobility associated with osteoarthritis. Physiotherapy can help improve strength, movement and confidence with everyday activities.

  • Runner’s knee and patellofemoral pain – pain around or behind the kneecap, often aggravated by running, stairs, squatting or prolonged sitting.

  • Patellar tendon pain – pain below the kneecap that can develop with repeated loading, particularly from running, jumping and sport. Rehabilitation can help gradually restore the strength and capacity of the tendon.

  • Meniscus injuries – knee pain, swelling, stiffness, clicking or catching that can occur following a twisting injury or develop gradually over time.

  • Ligament injuries – including ACL and MCL injuries, which can cause pain, swelling, instability or a feeling that the knee may give way. Physiotherapy can help restore strength, balance and confidence.

  • Knee pain after surgery – rehabilitation following procedures such as ACL reconstruction, meniscus surgery or knee replacement, with treatment tailored to your stage of recovery and individual goals.

  • General or unexplained knee pain – sometimes knee pain develops without an obvious injury or diagnosis. An assessment can help identify factors that may be contributing to your symptoms and determine the most appropriate treatment.​

​

Not Sure What's Causing Your Knee Pain?

You don't need to diagnose your knee pain yourself. Our Warrington physiotherapists can assess your symptoms, movement and strength, explain what may be contributing to your pain, and help you understand the best way forward.

Common Knee Problems We Treat in Warrington

What Does Knee Pain Feel Like?

Knee pain can feel different depending on the cause and how your knee is being affected. You may notice pain when walking, going up or down stairs, squatting, kneeling, running or getting up from a chair. Some people experience stiffness or swelling, while others may notice clicking, catching, weakness or a feeling that the knee is unstable or may give way. Knee pain can also develop gradually without a clear injury, or appear suddenly following a twist, fall or sporting injury.

If knee pain is affecting your everyday activities, exercise or ability to work, a physiotherapy assessment can help identify what may be causing your symptoms and how best to manage them.

How We Assess Your Knee Pain

Every knee problem is different, which is why we start with a thorough assessment rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Your physiotherapist will discuss your symptoms, how they started and what activities are affecting your knee. We’ll then assess your knee movement, strength, flexibility, balance and how you move during everyday activities or exercise.

We’ll use this information to identify the factors that may be contributing to your knee pain and explain our findings to you in clear, straightforward terms. From there, we’ll create a personalised treatment and rehabilitation plan based on your symptoms, lifestyle and goals, whether you want to get back to walking comfortably, return to running or sport, or simply move more confidently day to day.

How Physiotherapy Can Help

Physiotherapy can help reduce knee pain, improve movement and build the strength and confidence you need to get back to the activities you enjoy. Your treatment will be tailored to the cause of your knee pain, your current level of function and your goals.

Depending on your assessment, treatment may include targeted exercises to improve strength and stability, mobility work, progressive loading to build the capacity of the knee and advice on managing activities and exercise. Hands-on treatment may also be used where appropriate to help improve movement and reduce pain.

Whether your knee pain is affecting everyday activities, exercise, running or sport, we’ll guide you through your rehabilitation and help you progress at the right pace.
