Shoulder, hip & knee
The joints that carry your everyday life.
Your shoulders let you reach, lift and carry; your hips and knees take your weight with every step and stair. When one of them hurts, everyday tasks like dressing, sleeping on your side or climbing stairs get harder.
Most joint pain comes from tendons, muscles or joint surfaces that are overloaded or stiff. Treatment aims to restore movement and build strength so the joint can handle what you ask of it.
Shoulder
Rotator cuff tendinopathy and tears, frozen shoulder, impingement, bursitis, dislocations and post-surgical recovery.
Hip
Hip osteoarthritis, gluteal tendinopathy, bursitis, labral irritation, groin pain and hip replacement rehab.
Knee
Patellofemoral pain, meniscus and ligament injuries, patellar tendinopathy, osteoarthritis and knee replacement rehab.
How we help
Targeted care for each joint.
- Detailed assessment of the joint and the areas above and below it
- Manual therapy and mobilization to restore range of motion
- Progressive strengthening for the muscles that support the joint
- Shockwave therapy for stubborn tendon problems
- Activity and sport modification so you can stay active
- Pre- and post-surgical rehabilitation
What to expect
Clear goals, measurable progress.
We measure your movement and strength at the start and re-test regularly so you can see change, not just feel it.
Recovery time depends on the problem: a tendon may need 8 to 12 weeks of steady loading, while a stiff joint can improve faster. We will give you a realistic timeline after your assessment.
Common questions
Good to know.
Will I need surgery?
Many shoulder, hip and knee problems improve without surgery. If your assessment suggests a surgical opinion is worthwhile, we will tell you and help with the referral.
Is it safe to exercise with joint pain?
Usually yes, with the right type and amount. We help you find the level that improves the joint without flaring it up.
Do I need a doctor’s referral?
No. You can book directly with our physiotherapist. Some extended health plans ask for a referral before they reimburse, so it is worth checking your policy.
Do you direct bill insurance?
Yes, we direct bill many extended health providers and handle WCB and motor vehicle accident claims. Our front desk can confirm your coverage when you book.
