ACL reconstruction rebuilds a key knee ligament, but the surgery is only the start. Structured physiotherapy is what restores strength, control, and a safe return to sport.
The ACL is a ligament that stabilises the knee, often injured in sport during twisting or landing. Reconstruction rebuilds it, but the knee then needs months of structured work to become strong and stable again.
Rehabilitation is staged and important. Following your surgeon's protocol, I rebuild strength, movement, and control step by step, and use clear milestones to guide a safe, confident return to sport rather than a rushed one.
ACL recovery is a staged journey. I follow your surgeon's protocol and progress you through clear phases, using milestones rather than dates to decide when to advance.
Regaining full knee movement and reducing swelling early on.
Progressive strengthening of the thigh, hip, and knee.
Retraining stability and control the knee needs for sport.
Milestone-based testing before a safe return to play.
Treatment moves through clear stages. I set the pace to suit you, but the path usually looks like this.
Restore movement, reduce swelling, and regain basic control.
Progressive loading of the whole leg.
Balance, landing, and change-of-direction work.
Milestone testing before a safe, confident return.
Contact your surgeon or seek urgent care for signs of infection at the wound, a fever, new calf pain, swelling or breathlessness, or if the knee locks, gives way sharply, or swells suddenly.
Book an assessment with me and I'll build a plan around your body, your goals, and your day-to-day life.
