Say Goodbye to Knee Pain – Without Surgery
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of pain and reduced mobility in Australians over 50—but surgery isn’t your only option. At After Hours Physio, we bring advanced, evidence-based non-surgical treatment for knee osteoarthritis right to your doorstep. Whether you’re in pain after hours, have limited mobility, or simply prefer home-based care, we’re here when others aren’t.
Why Choose Non-Surgical Treatment?
Recent studies show that non-surgical management, especially when delivered early, can be just as effective in relieving pain and improving function as more invasive interventions. Here’s how we help:
Our Physiotherapy Approach to Knee Osteoarthritis
✅ 1. Targeted Home-Based Exercise Programs
- We tailor low-impact exercises like gentle strengthening, balance drills, and stretching to reduce stiffness and restore mobility.
- Exercises focus on the quadriceps, glutes, and hip stabilisers to unload pressure from the knee joint.
✅ 2. Manual Therapy & Joint Mobilisation
- Hands-on techniques to improve joint movement, ease pain, and reduce swelling.
✅ 3. Pain Management Strategies
- We utilise thermal therapy, taping techniques, and recommend the use of assistive devices (braces, walking aids) if needed.
- Education on activity pacing and joint protection strategies to reduce flare-ups.
✅ 4. Weight Management Support
- As little as a 5kg reduction in body weight can significantly decrease knee joint stress. We offer advice and collaborate with your GP or dietitian if required.
✅ 5. Emerging Treatments & Coordination
- New research points to medications like semaglutide (Ozempic) as helpful adjuncts to physio by aiding weight loss and inflammation.
- We stay up to date and coordinate with your GP for integrated care.
