Welcome to Knee Pain Australia

7 years ago after seeing thousands of patients we realised there was no specialised Knee Program in Australia.


We had thousands of patients come to us and they had been advised...

And maybe you can relate to this ⬇

​Get Cortisone Injections.​​

Use Heat Creams or Knee Braces.

Stop physical activity & sports.

  • Return to the sports & recreational activities they loved.

  • ​Be able to go on a hike or walk with friends.​- Feel Confident going down stairs.​

The next step we advise is a 30min Assessment with A Knee Pain Physio.

In this consult...

1. The physio will perform an in depth assessment of your Knee Joint and Review any X-Rays or MRI’s.

2. We’ll look at your strength, body alignment, walking pattern and movement difficulties.

3. We give you an accurate “current” diagnosis of your injury or knee condition

4. We create a custom plan to "de-load" the joint and restore your posture.

5. We focus on creating strength in the muscles around the knee.

6. If you do have health insurance, you are eligible for a rebate, which we can set up for you.

NOTE: This appointment is hosted Online via Zoom or an Messenger App, you are not required to make payment for this consultation.

physiotherapist with years of experience helping people recover from

sports and lower body injuries. He began his career as a sports trainer,

working closely with athletes and gaining hands-on experience with

found a special interest in knee injuries after partially tearing his own ACL

during training and successfully rehabbing it himself. While treating

clients in person and online, Salim noticed that those getting regular

support and guidance online were improving more than those just

coming in for one-off appointments. That realisation led him to start an
