At Physio Pro, we treat ACL rehabilitation, combining hands-on treatment, progressive exercise therapy, and sports-specific programs to restore strength and confidence in your knee. Whether you’re recovering from surgery or managing a partial tear, our physios can help.
Our physiotherapists follow the latest evidence-based protocols for ACL rehabilitation, whether you’ve had surgery or not. Treatment typically includes:
Pre-habilitation – preparing the knee for surgery by reducing swelling, restoring range of motion, and strengthening muscles.
Post-surgical rehabilitation – structured recovery plan to restore movement, strength, and stability after ACL reconstruction.
Manual therapy – hands-on techniques to improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and release surrounding soft tissue.
Progressive strengthening – tailored programs to build quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and calf strength.
Neuromuscular training – improving balance, coordination, and control to reduce re-injury risk.
Sports-specific rehab – return-to-sport testing and performance drills to ensure you are safe to play again.

Yes. With proper rehab and return-to-sport testing, many athletes successfully return to pre-injury performance levels.
Untreated ACL injuries can lead to ongoing instability, cartilage damage, meniscus tears, and early arthritis in the knee.
