Our Approach to ACL Injury
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are among the most significant knee injuries in sport, requiring either surgical reconstruction or non-operative rehabilitation depending on the individual's activity goals, knee stability, and associated injuries. Pro Health Clinic provides comprehensive ACL rehabilitation for both surgical and non-surgical pathways, structured around evidence-based criteria and return-to-sport testing.
ACL rehabilitation is a long-term process — typically 9-12 months to return to competitive sport following surgery. Programs at Pro Health Clinic follow a phased approach: early post-surgical recovery and range of motion restoration, progressive strength building, neuromuscular control and landing mechanics training, sport-specific conditioning, and criteria-based return to play. Each phase progresses on demonstrated ability, not time frames alone.
What We Treat
- Post-surgical ACL reconstruction rehabilitation
- Non-operative ACL management for appropriate candidates
- Quadriceps and hamstring strength rehabilitation
- Neuromuscular control and landing mechanics retraining
- Sport-specific return-to-play conditioning
- Associated meniscal and cartilage injury management
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
Your ACL rehabilitation program begins with a thorough assessment of your current status — whether you are in the early post-surgical phase or managing non-operatively. Your practitioner will establish your baseline measures, explain the full rehabilitation pathway, and set clear phase-progression criteria so you understand exactly what is needed to progress at each stage.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Pro Health Clinic from Strathfield?
Pro Health Clinic is approximately 2.1km from Strathfield — a 6-minute drive or a single train stop from Strathfield Station to Ashfield on the T1, T2, T3 or T9 lines.
Do you treat patients from Strathfield?
Yes — Strathfield is one of our closest neighbouring suburbs. We regularly treat Strathfield patients for chiropractic, physiotherapy, remedial massage, dry needling, and more.
Do I need surgery for an ACL tear near Strathfield?
Not necessarily. ACL reconstruction is recommended for people who wish to return to pivoting sports, have associated meniscal injuries, or experience significant knee instability affecting daily life. Some individuals — particularly older, less active patients — can manage successfully without surgery through structured rehabilitation. Your practitioner will discuss the factors relevant to your decision.
How long is ACL rehabilitation near Strathfield?
Return to competitive pivoting sport after ACL reconstruction typically takes 9-12 months. Return to lower-demand activities like running and gym work occurs earlier — usually 4-6 months. Timelines in non-surgical management vary. The critical principle is that return to sport should be based on demonstrated strength, neuromuscular control, and psychological readiness, not just elapsed time.
What are the signs that I have re-injured my ACL near Strathfield?
Signs of ACL re-injury include a sudden 'pop' in the knee during activity, immediate significant swelling, instability or 'giving way', and inability to bear weight. If you experience these during rehabilitation, stop the activity and seek prompt assessment. Re-injury rate is significantly higher when return to sport occurs before full criteria are met.
