Life in Grand Rapids, MI, is full of movement—whether you’re catching a Griffins hockey game downtown, hiking the scenic trails at Millennium Park, or simply managing the daily hustle of work and family. Our city’s four distinct seasons mean you might be braving icy sidewalks in winter, enjoying long summer bike rides on the White Pine Trail, or kneeling in your backyard garden as spring blooms. But what happens when knee pain interrupts your active lifestyle? At Athletico Physical Therapy – Grand Rapids (Walker/Standale), we understand how frustrating it can be to miss out on the things you love. Our specialized Knee Pain Therapy is designed to help you regain confidence in your movement—so you can get back to enjoying every season Grand Rapids has to offer.

Understanding Knee Pain—And How Physical Therapy Can Help

Whether your knee pain started suddenly after a weekend soccer match in Riverside Park or has gradually worsened from years of walking the downtown skywalks, you’re not alone. Knee pain can stem from a variety of causes—sports injuries like ACL or MCL tears, meniscus strains, the effects of arthritis, or even the daily wear and tear of an active Midwestern lifestyle. Our Knee Pain Therapy program is tailored to address each unique situation, focusing on lasting pain relief and improved mobility.

A Personalized Approach to Knee Pain Relief

At Athletico Physical Therapy – Grand Rapids (Walker/Standale), we know there’s no “one size fits all” when it comes to knee rehabilitation. When you come in for your first appointment, we’ll get to know your story—how your knee pain started, what movements are hardest, and what goals you have for getting back to your favorite activities. From there, your physical therapist will design a customized plan that may include:

  • Targeted knee range of motion exercises to restore flexibility and movement
  • Strengthening routines for the muscles around your knee, hips, and core
  • Meniscus rehab and ACL or MCL rehab strategies for sports injuries
  • Guided it band stretches for knee pain to ease tension and improve comfort
  • Balance and knee mobility drills to support stability on uneven Grand Rapids sidewalks or trails
  • Education on joint protection and knee-friendly movement for ongoing wellness

Our goal is always to help you move with less pain, greater confidence, and more freedom—whether you’re returning to the basketball courts at Belknap Park, tackling the stairs at Van Andel Arena, or just enjoying a walk along the Grand River.
