Pain We Treat
Knee Pain
Melbourne Muscular Therapies
Knee discomfort — whether a sharp niggle, a deep ache, or a feeling of instability — interrupts daily activities and exercise. Hip and ankle mobility issues frequently contribute to knee problems, and sedentary lifestyles create muscular imbalances where some muscles tighten while others weaken.
Our methodology uses slow and deep penetrating strokes to address dysfunction and signal neural relaxation. We identify which muscles require release versus strengthening — and treat previous injury and scar-tissue that commonly affects ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and the meniscus.
We follow a two-phase approach: first cleaning (deep tissue techniques to remove pain and tension), then building (strength development and postural improvement through barefoot exercise rehabilitation).

Our Knee Pain Results
“When I first started, I was struggling with ongoing knee and lower back issues. Within a relatively short time, I noticed a significant improvement... my back and knee problems became largely insignificant within about six months of first seeing Marcus.”
“I had pain in my hip & knees for approximately 6 years before coming to see the guys at MMT. I'd tried all kinds of therapies including Physio & Osteo over the years and never really had results to show for the time and money spent. Not only are the guys here genuine, real and authentic but they're also amazing at what they do. Yes, it hurts sometimes but the relief after is 100% worth it.”
“I have been seeing Oana at Melbourne Muscular Therapies for several months now and she has worked wonders for my daily pain and stiffness in my neck, shoulders, back and knees! Would not hesitate to recommend her and the MMT team to anyone needing great release work.”
How We Fix Knee Pain!
Common Questions
FAQ's
Knee pain typically results from dysfunctional biomechanics or previous injury. Sedentary lifestyles create muscular imbalances where some muscles tighten while others weaken — both contribute to knee stress.
Releasing tension in the quadriceps, TFL, lateral glutes, ITB, and hamstrings provides fast relief. Strengthening the glutes and quads through barefoot training minimises ongoing discomfort.
Ice suits acute injuries with swelling during the first 24–48 hours. Heat works better for chronic cases — it increases blood flow and facilitates natural healing.
Duration varies by individual — presenting complaints, history, and commitment to recommended lifestyle changes. Some clients experience significant relief in one session; others benefit from ongoing treatment over several months.
