Runner’s Knee Treatment in Atlanta

Stop Knee Pain. Keep Training. Run Stronger

Is Knee Pain Stopping You From Running?

Runner’s knee (also called patellofemoral pain syndrome) is one of the most common running injuries, and one of the most frustrating. If you’re dealing with:

  • Pain around or behind the kneecap during runs

  • Stiffness after sitting or climbing stairs

  • Clicking or grinding in the knee

  • Pain that gets worse the longer you run

…you don’t have to just “run through it.” At Tempo Physical Therapy & Performance, we can help you fix it and get back to training pain-free!

Our approach to runner’s knee treatment is different:

  • Thorough Running Assessment – We look at your gait, strength and mobility to find why your knee hurts.

  • Hands-On Treatment – We choose from our toolbox of manual techniques to calm down pain quickly and restore healthy movement.

  • Strength Training & Mechanics Work – We address muscle imbalances and improve knee tracking.

  • Personalized Plan – We prioritize trying to keep you training while recovering (not just rest and wait).

Runner Testimonial:

What causes runner’s knee?

Runner’s knee usually isn’t a “knee problem”. It’s often caused by:

  • Weak hips and glutes

  • Poor running form or excessive inward knee collapse

  • Tight quads or IT band

  • Sudden increase in training volume

Our job is to figure out what the root cause is behind your pain and create a plan that keeps you running. Check out our blog all about Runner’s Knee

Don’t Let Knee Pain Sideline You

You’ve worked too hard to miss training or sit out your race. The sooner you get your knee looked at, the faster you can get back to pain-free running.
