Ankle and Knee Pain
Treatment Canberra
Suffering from
Ankle or Knee Pain?
Even minor pain in the ankles, knees, and lower limbs in general can put you firmly out of action. Working, exercising, socialising, and everything in between can become extremely painful. The longer you let your pain go unaddressed, the worse it may get. From our experience at Powerhouse Canberra, we recommend booking an appointment to get your pain assessed as early as you can. Not only may this help you recover sooner, but it may also prevent serious injury further down the track.

Ankle and Knee
Pain Treatments
Your specific treatment plan is going to change depending on several factors. We’re dedicated to personalised care, and that means that every patient is going to have a unique journey with us. The nature of your injury, your medical history, your lifestyle, and your recovery goals will all influence our treatment recommendations.
Working with Powerhouse Canberra physiotherapists can give you direct access to tailored treatment plans and rehabilitation programs. We can offer prescribed exercises, massage therapy, and various other forms of physio care to help you recover. Another perk of our approach to treatment is that we can offer advice for injury prevention and provide post-operative care.
Another problem we commonly see come through our doors is Achilles injuries. Damage to the Achilles may be common, but it’s nonetheless serious – and we have treatment options available to help address a variety of specific injuries. Our Achilles Tendonopathy rehab program can help patients recover at their own pace with the guidance of our skilled team members. For individuals with a ruptured Achilles tendon, we can offer both surgical and nonsurgical management strategies.
Your Questions
Answered
If you are experiencing pain, you should avoid activities that could worsen that pain until you can get it checked out. Returning to exercise should be done with the advice of an experienced physiotherapist and should likely begin with prescribed stretches and exercise routines.
