Knee Pain and Leg Injuries

Knee Pain Physiotherapy in Singapore CBD

Knee pain is common among athletes and active individuals, but also affects those with arthritis or post-surgery recovery needs.

Whether from running, gym training, or wear and tear, we assess movement patterns and use strengthening, taping, and manual therapy to relieve pain and restore knee function. Knee pain is one of the most frequent issues we treat at Strength Clinic Academy. It affects not only athletes but also office workers, active individuals, and older adults. From sports injuries like ACL tears to chronic issues like osteoarthritis, our physiotherapists design personalised rehab programs to restore strength, movement, and confidence.

ACL Injury Rehabilitation

ACL tears require structured rehab. Our program follows an evidence-based protocol that includes:

  • Progressive strength training to restore power in the quads and hamstrings.

  • Neuromuscular control drills to retrain balance and agility.

  • VALD force testing for objective data on recovery progress.

  • Sport-specific drills to ensure safe return to competition.

Meniscus Tear Rehab

Meniscus injuries can cause pain, swelling, or even locking of the knee joint. In many cases, physiotherapy can help avoid surgery. Treatment may include:

  • Joint mobilisation to restore smooth movement.

  • Quadriceps and hip strengthening for joint stability.

  • Balance and proprioception exercises to support return to sport.

  • Education on load management to prevent further injury.

Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome)

PFPS causes pain around the kneecap, often worsened by running or stairs. Our physiotherapists address the root causes with:

  • Muscle balance correction between the quads, hips, and glutes.

  • Hip strengthening to improve knee alignment.

  • Movement retraining to correct mechanics during running and squatting.

  • Progressive load management so you can return to activity pain-free.

Post-Surgery Knee Physiotherapy

After ACL reconstructions, meniscus repairs, or knee replacements, we guide clients through staged rehab to rebuild motion, strength, and confidence.

  1. Early phase – pain relief, swelling reduction, and gentle mobility.

  2. Strengthening phase – rebuilding quads, hamstrings, and hip stability.

  3. Advanced rehab – dynamic drills, balance work, and functional strength.

  4. Return to sport or activity – testing readiness and reducing risk of reinjury.

Osteoarthritis Knee Management

For degenerative knee pain, physiotherapy offers reduce stiffness and maintain independence through,

  • Strengthening surrounding muscles to reduce load on the joint.

  • Maintaining joint mobility through safe movement.

  • Lifestyle strategies including activity modifications and pain management.

  • Education on pacing, joint protection, and long-term care.
