St. Louis is a city that loves to move. Whether you’re climbing the steps at Busch Stadium, enjoying Forest Park trails, or just keeping up with grandchildren at Tower Grove, your knees work hard for you in every season.

At Athletico Physical Therapy – South City, we understand how important it is for St. Louisans to stay active, and that’s why our Knee Pain Therapy is designed to help you get back to the lifestyle you love.

Understanding Knee Pain in St. Louis

Knee pain can sneak up on anyone—whether you’re an athlete training for the Go! St. Louis Marathon, a weekend gardener, or someone who simply enjoys strolling the neighborhood. The changing Missouri seasons can be tough on joints, and activities like yardwork, hiking, or even shoveling snow can leave your knees feeling stiff or sore. For many, knee pain means missing out on favorite moments, from cheering at a Cardinals game to joining a community event at Tower Grove Park.

Our Knee Pain Therapy is here to help address a wide range of issues, including joint pain from everyday activities, recovery from sports injuries like ACL or MCL strains, and rehabilitation after procedures such as knee replacement or meniscus repair. We also offer support for chronic concerns like knee arthritis, helping you manage symptoms and improve your quality of life.
