Can I treat knee pain without surgery?

Yes. The vast majority of knee conditions, including early Osteoarthritis and Meniscus tears, respond well to conservative care. At DakshinRehab in Hyderabad, our non-surgical protocol combines 3-Tesla SIS technology with biomechanical correction to offload the joint and restore function without invasion.

Is walking good for knee arthritis?

Yes, motion is lotion. Controlled walking stimulates synovial fluid which nourishes the cartilage. However, you must walk with correct mechanics. We analyze your gait to ensuring walking helps rather than harms your knee joints.

What is 3-Tesla SIS therapy?

3-Tesla SIS (Super Inductive System) is a high-intensity electromagnetic therapy that penetrates deep into the knee joint. It is clinically proven to reduce pain, improve circulation, and stimulate healing in cartilage and ligaments, offering a powerful non-surgical option.

How long does ACL recovery take?

ACL recovery is a biological process. While basic walking returns in weeks, full Return-to-Sport typically requires 9-12 months of progressive rehabilitation to ensure the graft is mature and your neuromuscular control is safe for pivoting activities.

Can meniscus tears heal on their own?

Small tears in the 'Red Zone' (outer edge) of the meniscus have good blood supply and can heal with protection and rehab. Inner zone tears may not heal structurally but can become asymptomatic with good physiotherapy that strengthens the surrounding musculature.

Do you offer home physiotherapy?

Yes, we offer specialized home care for immobile post-op patients in Hyderabad. However, to achieve the best results, we recommend visiting our center in Moosapet to access non-portable technologies like the 3-Tesla SIS and Gait Lab.

Is Physiotherapy effective for Stage 4 Arthritis?

In Stage 4 (Bone-on-Bone), physiotherapy cannot regrow cartilage, but it can significantly reduce pain and improve quality of life by strengthening muscles to 'bypass' the joint stress. It is also excellent preparation for surgery ('Pre-hab') to ensure faster recovery.

Pre-hab is rehabilitation BEFORE surgery. Research shows that patients who strengthen their knee for 4-6 weeks prior to replacement surgery have less pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recoveries than those who do not.

How does Shockwave therapy work?

Radial Shockwave Therapy delivers acoustic pulses to injured tissues. It is particularly effective for tendon issues like Jumper's Knee. It breaks down scar tissue and stimulates neovascularization (new blood vessel growth) to drive healing in chronic injuries.

Why does my knee click?

Painless clicking is often just gas bubbles popping (cavitation) or tendons snapping over bone. However, painful clicking or locking usually indicates a mechanical issue like a meniscus tear or cartilage flap and should be assessed by a specialist.

Is cycling better than running for knees?

Generally, yes. Cycling is a low-impact activity that allows you to strengthen the knee muscles without the high impact forces of running. It is often a key part of our rehabilitation protocols for knee arthritis.

Do I need an MRI before physiotherapy?

Not always. Our specialists can perform clinical orthopedic tests that are highly accurate for diagnosing many knee conditions. If we suspect severe structural damage or fracture, we will refer you for imaging, but often treatment can start immediately.

Specialized Care Tracks

Targeted Programs for Every Knee Condition

We stratify our care based on diagnosis and goals, ensuring you receive the specific protocol suitable for your tissue healing phase.

Post-Op TKR Rehab Track

ACL & Sports Return Track

Friction syndrome of the outer knee. Often a result of weak hip stabilizers.

Orthopedic

Tendinopathy & Strains

Overuse injuries of the Patellar or Hamstring tendons. Requires load management.

Warning Signs of Joint Deterioration

Pain is a request for change. Ignoring these specific mechanical symptoms can lead to accelerated wear and tear (Osteoarthritis).

Referred Nerve Pain

Pain shooting down the thigh may be sciatica masking as knee pain. We ensure the diagnosis is correct before treatment begins.

Loss of Extension

If you can't straighten your knee fully, your walking mechanics are compromised, leading to hip and back issues. This requires immediate mobilization.

Instability / Giving Way

A knee that buckles is a safety risk. This often indicates ligament incompetence or severe reflex inhibition requiring stability training.

Persistent Swelling

Swelling contains inflammatory enzymes that eat away at cartilage. Chronic swelling must be managed to preserve the joint.

Expert Advice

4 Essential Steps for Knee Health

Proactive steps you can take today to protect your knee joints and maintain mobility.

Low-Impact Activity

Engage in swimming or cycling to keep joints moving without excessive weight-bearing stress.

Proper Footwear

Wear supportive shoes with good cushioning to absorb shock and align your lower limbs correctly.

Weight Management

A standardized clinical system refined over 21 years to deliver predictable results for complex knee conditions.

Phase 1: Diagnostic Precision

We don't guess. Using clinical orthopaedic testing and 3D movement analysis, we identify the exact mechanical failure causing your pain.

Phase 2: Biological Activation

We utilize 3-Tesla SIS and Shockwave technology to jumpstart the healing process in avascular structures like cartilage and tendons.

Phase 3: Functional Resilience

We build bulletproof knees. Through progressive loading and neuromuscular training, we ensure your knee can handle the demands of your life.
