Knee Pain Is More Common Than You Think
If you are struggling with knee issues, you are not alone. Research from the Public Health Agency of Canada shows that over 3.9 million Canadians live with diagnosed osteoarthritis. In Ontario specifically, the prevalence is approximately 14% among adults, and that number is rising as our population ages.
Unfortunately, many people wait too long to seek help. A Canadian study found that 40% of patients with osteoarthritis endured symptoms for more than a year before getting a diagnosis. Waiting often leads to longer recovery times and increased reliance on medication. In fact, over 30% of Ontarians requiring surgery in 2022 couldn't get it within the recommended six-month window. Conservative care at our clinic offers a proactive, faster alternative to waiting for surgical intervention.
Why Choose Us for Your Recovery
We focus on delivering results that last. Our clinic offers a welcoming environment where your recovery is our top priority. Here is why patients trust us with their care.

Our Clinic Director, Dr. Kevin Cheyne, has completed extensive training as an Advanced Practice Provider with the provincial Low Back Pain Rapid Access Clinic Program. This high level of diagnostic expertise extends to how we assess and treat knee conditions, ensuring you receive a precise diagnosis.
A Multidisciplinary Approach
We don't rely on a single method. We combine physiotherapy, chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture, and massage therapy. This comprehensive strategy ensures we address the muscles, joints, and nerves contributing to your knee pain for better outcomes.
Patient-Centered Care
We treat people, not just injuries. Your treatment plan is built entirely around your specific goals, whether that is running a marathon or simply walking down the stairs without pain. We educate you on your condition so you feel empowered.

We want your focus to be on healing, not paperwork. We offer direct billing to most major insurance companies for physiotherapy, chiropractic, and massage services. We are also conveniently located near Highway 427 and the Gardiner Expressway.

Treatments that Work for Your Knee Pain
We use evidence-based therapies to reduce inflammation, restore range of motion, and strengthen the knee joint. Here is how we help.
-
Chiropractic Care
Dr. Cheyne uses specific adjustments and mobilizations to restore proper alignment to the knee, hips, and ankles. This reduces stress on the joint and improves biomechanical function.
-
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapists create custom exercise programs to strengthen the muscles supporting your knee. We use hands-on manual therapy to break down scar tissue and improve joint mobility.
-
Acupuncture
We use contemporary medical acupuncture to modulate pain and improve nerve function. This peripheral nerve stimulation technique is highly effective for reducing chronic pain and speeding up tissue healing.
-
Massage Therapy
Our registered massage therapists target tight muscles in the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves that often pull on the knee joint. This improves circulation and reduces tension.
-
Therapeutic Yoga
Guided by a specialist, therapeutic yoga improves flexibility and balance. It is a gentle way to build stability around the knee joint while reducing stress and improving the mind-body connection.
-
Custom Orthotics
Poor foot mechanics often cause knee pain. We design custom orthotics to correct your foot posture, providing a solid foundation that aligns your knees and hips correctly.
-
In-Home Therapy
If your injury makes it difficult to travel, we bring the clinic to you. We offer in-home chiropractic and physiotherapy services in Etobicoke and East Mississauga to ensure you get the care you need.
Common Knee Pain Conditions We Treat
We see a wide variety of knee issues at our clinic. Here are some of the most common conditions we treat successfully:
Osteoarthritis (OA): Wear and tear of the joint cartilage causing stiffness and pain.
Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome: Often called "runner's knee," causing pain at the front of the knee.
Meniscus Tears: Injuries to the shock-absorbing cartilage in the knee.
Ligament Sprains (ACL/MCL): Overstretching or tearing of the ligaments stabilizing the knee.
Tendonitis: Inflammation of the tendons, such as Jumper’s Knee.
Bursitis: Inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs that cushion the knee joint.
Iliotibial (IT) Band Syndrome: Pain on the outside of the knee common in runners.
Post-Surgical Rehab: Recovery support following knee replacements or arthroscopic surgeries.

What to Expect at Your First Visit
We want you to feel comfortable and confident from the moment you walk in. Here is how we start your journey to recovery.
Thorough Assessment
We start with a comprehensive evaluation. We review your medical history and conduct physical tests to pinpoint the exact cause of your knee pain. This ensures we treat the problem, not just the symptoms.
Personalized Treatment Plan
Based on your assessment, we design a plan tailored to you. We explain exactly what is going on with your knee and outline the steps we will take together to fix it.
Active Treatment
Your treatment starts on day one. Whether it is manual therapy, acupuncture, or a specific exercise, you will leave your first appointment with therapy already underway and tools to manage pain at home.
Education and Prevention
We teach you how to protect your knees in the future. You will learn about proper biomechanics, footwear, and exercises to prevent your pain from coming back.
