What is Knee Pain & Knee Osteoarthritis?
Knee pain is the most searched pain condition in India. It affects young athletes with ligament injuries and middle-aged adults with osteoarthritis alike. Online physiotherapy is clinically proven to reduce knee pain, improve strength, and in many cases eliminate the need for surgery.
The knee is the most complex joint in the body — and the most commonly injured. Knee pain can arise from the cartilage (osteoarthritis, meniscal tears), ligaments (ACL, PCL, MCL), tendons (patellar tendinopathy, IT band syndrome), bursae, or referred pain from the hip or spine. Without an accurate diagnosis, generic exercises can make the condition worse. Dr. Ponkhi Sharma's video assessment identifies the exact pain source, determines whether the pain is mechanical, inflammatory, or referred, and creates a condition-specific rehabilitation plan. Evidence consistently shows that targeted physiotherapy is as effective as surgery for most knee osteoarthritis and ligament injury presentations.
Common Symptoms of Knee Pain
How Online Physiotherapy Treats Knee Pain
Evidence-based, condition-specific treatment delivered via secure video call by Dr. Ponkhi Sharma PT.
VMO & Quadriceps Activation
Targeted exercises to activate the vastus medialis oblique — the critical inner quad muscle that directly controls kneecap tracking and reduces joint stress.
Hip & Core Strengthening
Most knee pain has a component of hip weakness. Dr. Ponkhi addresses the entire kinetic chain — hip, core, and ankle — not just the knee.
Load Management & Gait Retraining
Analysing how you walk, climb stairs, and use the knee allows Dr. Ponkhi to correct movement patterns that are overloading the joint.
Proprioception & Balance Training
Restoring joint position sense and balance is critical for preventing re-injury, especially following ligament damage.

"My orthopaedic surgeon told me I needed knee replacement at 58. I booked one session with Dr. Ponkhi first. Six weeks of her exercise protocol and I cancelled the surgery. My pain went from 8/10 to 1/10. I'm now walking 5km daily."

Frequently Asked Questions — Knee Pain Online Physiotherapy
Everything you need to know about treating knee pain online.
Can online physiotherapy help with knee osteoarthritis?
Yes. A landmark 2019 Lancet study found that a personalised, physiotherapist-guided exercise program was as effective as surgery for knee osteoarthritis. Online physiotherapy delivers that same evidence-based exercise protocol, tailored to your grade of OA, your strength levels, and your daily activities.
Should I get knee replacement surgery or try physiotherapy first?
For most patients with knee OA grades 1–3, physiotherapy should be the first-line treatment — not surgery. Surgery is recommended only when conservative management has failed after an adequate trial. Dr. Ponkhi will assess your case and give an honest, evidence-based recommendation.
Is walking good or bad for knee pain?
Walking is generally beneficial for knee health, but the amount and surface matter enormously. Dr. Ponkhi will prescribe a graduated walking program appropriate for your condition — often starting with short, flat-surface walks and progressively increasing as strength and pain allow.
Can I do physiotherapy for a knee ligament injury online?
Yes. ACL, MCL, and PCL injury rehabilitation — whether conservative or post-surgical — can be effectively managed online. The exercise progressions are well-established, and Dr. Ponkhi can accurately assess your range of motion, strength, and function via video.
How long does physiotherapy take for knee pain?
Mild to moderate knee pain typically shows significant improvement in 4–8 weeks. Post-surgical rehabilitation (knee replacement or ACL reconstruction) typically requires 3–6 months of structured rehab. An accurate timeline will be provided at your Day 1 assessment.
