Relieve Pain, Rebuild Strength, and Prevent Re-Injury-Without Surgery or Medication
Whether you’re dealing with persistent knee pain, recovering from an overuse injury, or struggling to return to sport or daily movement, Optimum Movement Centre is here to help. Our combination of highly trained coaches and specialised MedX rehabilitation equipment allows us to provide tailored support for a wide range of knee injuries.
Common Knee Injuries We Help With
We commonly work with clients recovering from:
- Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (runner’s knee) – pain at the front of the knee caused by poor tracking or alignment of the kneecap
- Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS) – pain on the outside of the knee, especially during running or repetitive movement
- Patellar Tendinopathy (jumper’s knee) – pain just below the kneecap, often caused by overuse and load intolerance
These conditions can be frustrating, especially when rest alone doesn’t resolve the issue. That’s because most knee injuries result from weakness, poor movement patterns, or imbalances-which need to be corrected with structured, progressive strength work.
Our Approach to Knee Injury Recovery
At OMC, we don’t just treat symptoms-we address the underlying cause of your knee pain. Our team will assess how you move, identify weakness or instability in your hips, knees, and ankles, and guide you through a personalised program to correct those issues. We focus on:
- Reducing pain and inflammation through low-impact movement
- Rebuilding knee joint strength and control
- Restoring hip, glute, and core stability to support the knee
- Correcting movement patterns to prevent re-injury
We offer a calm, supportive space where you can rebuild confidence in your movement with expert guidance at every step.
MedX Leg & Lower Body Equipment: Safe, Targeted Strength
Our MedX equipment allows us to isolate and strengthen key muscle groups around the knee joint-without placing unnecessary stress on sensitive tissues. This is ideal for people recovering from pain, inflammation, or past injuries.
✅ MedX Leg Press
A safe and controlled way to rebuild strength in the legs and hips. The MedX Leg Press allows us to apply precise resistance while minimising joint stress, helping you regain strength and function for everyday movements like squatting, climbing stairs, or returning to sport.
✅ MedX Hip Abduction & Adduction
These machines target the glutes and inner thighs-critical for knee alignment. Weakness in these areas can contribute to IT band syndrome and general poor knee tracking.
✅ MedX Torso Rotation & Core Equipment
While not directly working the knees, these machines help develop trunk control and rotational stability, which improve overall movement patterns and reduce compensations that overload the knees.
Personalised Coaching, Lasting Results
Every OMC program is individually tailored. Our experienced team will guide you through your recovery, from pain relief to strength building and full return to activity. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all programs-your plan is built around your injury, body, and goals.
Best of all, we do this without relying on medications, injections, or surgery. Just smart, science-backed training designed to get you moving again-stronger than before.
