The most powerful thing a physio can do for a noisy knee isn't an exercise.
It's a conversation.
The right words can settle a worried patient down and get them back to squatting, running, and lifting within minutes.
The wrong words such as "bone on bone", "wear and tear" can quietly drive years of activity avoidance.
If you've ever sat in a consult feeling unsure of what to say about a patient's creaky knee, this one's for you.
And if you've ever left a clinic more worried than when you walked in… this one's for you too.
Tag a clinician (or patient) who needs this.
