Knee pain

At Mixed Osteo, knee pain is one of the most prevalent lower limb symptoms that clients present with when they come to see an osteopath for treatment. At the clinic, we see a wide spectrum of acute and chronic knee pain complaints, with the acute knee pain complaint most frequently occuring after a traumatic injury or excessive loading during a sporting event or competition. Typically, the chronic knee complaint develops more slowly over time, and individuals are more likely to have ignored their bodies' warning signals that have been going off while engaging in the activity that is contributing to its development.

A detailed case history will be taken when you visit our Kensington clinic, and an assessment will be performed to determine whether a referral or imaging is required (in the case of suspected ligament damage or fracture, i.e. an internal knee structure issue such as an ACL, PCL, MCL, or LCL strain or injury to the medial meniscus/lateral meniscus). For the large number of patients who do not require imaging or referral, we will frequently offer treatment and develop a treatment plan.
