Runner preparing for training

Running and Knee Injury Clinic

Knee pain can appear after a change in distance, pace, terrain or strength work. We review your symptoms and running history, then agree which activity you can keep doing and how to build back gradually.

Is this right for you?

When this treatment can help

  • Knee pain linked to running or impact activity
  • Overuse symptoms limiting training consistency
  • Runners returning from injury interruption
  • Active adults needing structured return-to-running guidance

Your appointment

What your care includes

  • Running and knee-focused assessment
  • Load and cadence-aware rehabilitation planning
  • Strength and tissue-capacity progression
  • Structured return-to-running progression milestones

Aftercare between visits

We set out the running and strengthening steps agreed with you, including what to monitor between sessions. Your next progression is based on training response and your goals, not a promise to be running a set distance by a fixed date.

How assessment and treatment progress
  1. Load and symptom review

    We ask what changed in training, when symptoms appear and how the knee responds afterwards. The assessment also considers strength and movement relevant to running.

  2. Rehabilitation and capacity build

    Rehab progresses with targeted strength, control, and load tolerance work.

  3. Return-to-running execution

    We agree a manageable return-to-running approach and revisit symptoms, daily function and training response before increasing load.

  • Symptom-led training adjustments
  • Strength and load-capacity progression

Insurance & cash-plan guidance
What happens at my first physiotherapy appointment?

We discuss your symptoms and goals, assess your movement and agree a treatment plan. Care may include hands-on treatment, exercises and practical advice where appropriate. Bring relevant medical or surgical instructions so your care follows that advice.

Do I need a GP referral or insurance authorisation?

You can book self-pay physiotherapy without a GP referral. If you want to use private medical insurance, check your plan's referral and authorisation requirements before booking, and confirm your insurer covers the physiotherapist you choose. An excess or shortfall may apply.

Is this a clinic appointment or a home visit?

These service pages describe clinic physiotherapy. For treatment at your own address, choose Home visits instead; your visit address and suitable availability are checked separately. A clinic booking does not arrange a home visit.
