Understanding Knee Pain

Knee pain can develop from many different causes.

Common sources of knee pain include:

• Osteoarthritis and joint degeneration
• Ligament injuries such as ACL or MCL tears
• Meniscus tears and cartilage damage
• Patellofemoral pain syndrome
• Tendonitis and bursitis
• Post-surgical recovery after knee replacement

Our physiotherapists assess your knee function, identify the source of your pain, and build a treatment plan tailored to your condition.
At Tonic Physio Milton, we take the time to understand your knee condition and your goals. Whether you want to return to sports or simply walk without discomfort, we create a plan that works for you.

How Physiotherapy Helps Knee Pain

Physiotherapy is one of the most effective ways to manage knee pain without relying on medication or surgery.

Our treatment approach includes:

Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques to reduce stiffness, improve joint movement, and ease muscle tension around the knee.
Exercise Rehabilitation: Targeted exercises to strengthen the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calf muscles that support the knee joint.
Movement Retraining: Correcting gait and movement patterns to reduce stress on the knee during daily activities.
Pain Management: Using modalities such as ice, heat, ultrasound, and electrical stimulation to control pain and inflammation.

We adjust your treatment as your knee improves, ensuring steady progress toward full recovery.
If you are searching for knee pain treatment in Milton, Tonic Physio offers professional care with direct billing to most insurance plans.

What to Expect During Your Knee Assessment

We discuss when your knee pain started, activities that worsen or relieve it, previous injuries, surgeries, and your daily movement habits.

Step 2: Physical Examination
Our physiotherapist examines your knee for swelling, tenderness, range of motion, strength, and stability. We also assess your walking pattern and hip alignment, as these affect knee function.

Step 3: Personalized Treatment Plan
