Physiotherapy for knee pain and ACL injuries in Coquitlam.

Some people do well with rehab alone if the knee is stable for their activities, while others returning to cutting and pivoting sport choose reconstruction. Rehab matters either way, before and after surgery. A surgeon makes the surgical call, and we build the rehab around whichever path you take.

Yes. Growing athletes often get kneecap and tendon pain from training load. We assess what is loading the knee, adjust the training, and build the strength and control that settles it, so they can keep playing where possible.

Yes. A knee injured in a collision is treated within ICBC's pre-approved physiotherapy with no referral needed. Bring your claim number and we bill ICBC directly.

The 2026 private-pay rate is $170 for the 60 minute initial assessment and $105 per 30 minute follow-up, listed in full on our /rates page. MSP-eligible clients pay a reduced rate, and most extended health plans are direct-billed up to your plan limit, with any balance due on the day.

A structured ACL reconstruction program commonly runs 9 to 12 months from surgery to full return-to-sport clearance, with strength and hop testing gating each stage. Non-surgical rehab for a stable knee or a meniscus tear is often shorter, typically 8 to 16 weeks depending on how the knee responds to loading.

A physiotherapist, regulated by the College of Health and Care Professionals of BC, does the assessment and diagnosis and sets the treatment plan. A kinesiologist, a BC Association of Kinesiologists member, runs the progressive strength and conditioning work once the knee is ready for heavier loading. Both work from the same second-floor Coquitlam studio.

Yes. The studio is open most weekdays until 8pm and on Saturdays, which suits Tri-Cities families and weekend athletes who need to fit knee rehab around work, school pickup, and weekend sport without missing a session or rearranging the whole week's schedule around one appointment.

Not always. Many meniscus tears settle with rehab alone and never need surgery, while certain patterns, such as a knee that locks or catches, warrant a surgical opinion. Your physiotherapist screens for those patterns at the first assessment and refers you on if the findings point that way.
