Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Can physical therapy help knee arthritis?

Yes. Physical therapy is a common first step for many knee problems. Our focus is on reducing pain and swelling, strengthening the knee and hip, and improving motion and the way you walk and use stairs, so that daily activity is easier. Your therapist also shows you what to keep doing at home.

How long is rehab after a knee replacement or ACL surgery?

It varies with the surgery and the person. Knee replacement rehab often runs several weeks to a few months, and ACL reconstruction rehab is usually longer because it requires more healing time. We always follow your surgeon's protocol and set clear milestones with you.

Why does my knee hurt on stairs?

Pain on stairs often comes from the kneecap (patella) and knee joint, and from tight and/or weak muscles in the thigh and hip that control the knee. Flat feet can also cause knee pain by affecting how your knee functions with walking and stairs. A good therapist will always look at your feet and shoes to see how they might influence your walking pattern.
