Knee Pain
How to take the journey away from nagging and frustrating knee pain and stiffness, avoiding continuous pills or risky surgery – and there is no need to see your GP first
Knee Pain
Knee pain can be highly frustrating for people who come to the clinic because it affects their mobility so much. If you’re a sports person, a keen walker or just want to get out in the garden, you want to do it without knee pain. Although it seems like a simple hinge joint, the knee still has many causes to why it hurts. Some of these are caused by:
- Age changes of the knee reducing the cushion of the knee (cartilage)
- Ligament injuries.
- Pressure soreness from kneeling causing inflammation to the cushions of the knee
- Tears in the surrounding muscles.
- Overusing muscles that get sore or achey.
These can be on their own or with a mixture of them
If you book with us then we will assess your knee to determine the cause, how long to get it better and listen to what you would like to get back to, so we are working towards your goal.
If you are ready to start the recovery journey, click on the Book now button and book yourself in directly to one of our therapists diaries.
What we will do:
- Assess the problems affecting your knee and map out a plan
- Ensure they work with you at different stages to help you out of pain and back to being active.
- Avoid rest and wait approach, instead modify and engage
- Working the movements that will get back to what is important.

Two Options To Make The Decision Process Easier
If you’re not really sure, or you have already tried a therapist and you haven’t got anywhere so far, then we have a couple of options to consider. This means you can get our opinion as whether we think we can help, without the commitment of time of money.
Talk to a Physio First
Some people are not quite ready to book an appointment straight away as they are uncertain about whether physio can help them. You might need some questions answering first, so you can be sure that someone at The Wimborne Clinic can help you. It is an opportunity to gauge if we are a good fit and you can become one of our patients. If you click the link below and fill in the short form then we can schedule a call from one of our specialist physios who be able to answer any queries for free:
Free Taster Session
Over the 40 years of helping people make decisions about their health, we know that trying to find the right place to get help is tough. There is the question as to whether it will work, or the uncertainty if it helps your specific problem. We have heard people having bad experiences too, which can be off-putting. We have therefore created the taster session, which is a free 20 minutes session to have questions answered. Fill in the short form following the link below:
How Are You Going To Help Me With My Particular Knee Problem?
The Physios start treatment quickly to work on taking away the pain and stiffness
Importantly at the end of the assessment you will find out what’s really going on, and get to the root cause of your back pain once and for all
Your confidence will return as the physio will work with you to ensure that your problem is “corrected” and “healed” properly – and we will provide you with the perfect set of exercises that will speed up your recovery
The plan will definitely be to help you put an end to needing to take all of those painkillers which are obviously not very good for your long-term health
All of our patient’s want to avoid the GP’s waiting room where you’ll be told to “rest” again…
Our priority will be getting back to enjoying quality time with family and friends that your injury has taken from you…
Recovering the simple things of walking, and moving freely, without worrying if the pain is going to get worse and stop you in your tracks
Everyone wants to avoid more risky surgery – and painful injections too!
Basically… the Physiotherapy Team at The Wimborne Clinic can help you get back to living life free from daily, annoying and frustrating back pain, and return to the exercise you love
