ACL Therapies & Treatments to Speed UpRecovery Time

Typically, a torn ACL will require some degree of reconstructive surgery or tissue grafting as repair is more complex than just stitching the tear back together. The physiotherapy treatments we offer at West 1 Health are evidence-based and are proven to help with ACL treatment at every stage so you can have confidence and peace of mind in your recovery.

About ACL injuries 

Your anterior cruciate ligament - known as the ACL - is the band of tissue in your knee that connects your thigh bone to the shin bone to keep the joint stable and aid movement in the lower leg. Injuries are not uncommon among active people and sportspersons, like snowsports enthusiasts or football players. Jolts from running or sudden turns cause the joint to overextend and tear resulting in severe pain and limited mobility.
