New to fitness, 55 Fear of exercise after knee soreness 10 weeks
Approach

She was nervous about exercise after knee soreness on stairs. We built confidence with seated strength work, then progressed to supported squats, balance drills, and a gentle walking plan that increased by five minutes each week.

Outcome

Within ten weeks she walks 30 minutes most days without knee pain. She strength trains twice weekly at her community gym with a program we designed together. She reports feeling steadier on stairs and when getting up from chairs.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about what to expect, recovery, and booking at our Taradale clinic.

How is kinesiology different from physiotherapy?

Kinesiology leans heavily on exercise coaching. Physio may include more hands on care.

Do I need equipment?

We start minimal. Bands and simple home items work well.

Can kinesiology help before surgery?

Yes. Prehab improves outcomes for many joint procedures.
