What it is
The meniscus is the knee's shock-absorbing cartilage. Tears can happen with a twist or gradually with age, and many settle well with physiotherapy rather than surgery.
Signs and symptoms
- Pain along the joint line
- Swelling that comes and goes
- Catching, clicking or occasional locking
- Discomfort squatting or twisting
How physiotherapy helps
We settle the irritation, restore movement and build the strength that supports and protects the knee. Most people return to their activities with a well-structured, progressive plan.
At Meridian, care is always one-on-one with an AHPC-registered physiotherapist. We explain things clearly, give honest advice with no upselling, support your insurance claim and keep our pricing transparent.
