Get the most out of your knee surgery with expert rehabilitation
Surgery is only half the journey. At KC Health Services, we guide you through a structured recovery program so you return to full strength, function and activity.
Does this sound familiar?
Struggling to recover after knee surgery?
Surgery corrects the structural problem — but without the right rehabilitation, many patients plateau well short of full recovery. The weeks and months after your procedure are critical to how well you ultimately function.
Our approach
A structured program from day one to full return
Post-operative rehab is not one-size-fits-all. We tailor every program to your specific surgery, surgeon's protocol, and personal goals — whether that's getting back to work, sport, or everyday life.
Phase 01
Protection & Early Movement
Gentle, guided movement to reduce swelling, prevent stiffness and protect the surgical repair while healing begins.
Phase 02
Restoring Range of Motion
Progressive mobility work to restore full knee movement safely, in line with your surgeon's protocol and healing timeframes.
Phase 03
Strength & Stability
A structured loading program built on exercise science principles to rebuild strength, muscle control and knee stability.
Phase 04
Return to Full Activity
Sport and activity-specific training to get you back to what you love — confident, strong and with a reduced risk of re-injury.

Meet your physio
The person who'll actually be treating you
Matt — Director & Principal Physiotherapist
Matt brings 20 years of experience in health, fitness and rehabilitation, including 7 years as a qualified physiotherapist — a combination that shapes how he treats every patient, not just what he knows.
He holds dual degrees in Physiotherapy and Exercise Science, along with additional certifications in fitness, massage therapy, and training and education. This broader background means treatment goes beyond symptom relief: Matt builds real strength and resilience so problems are less likely to return.
Matt's sporting background runs deep. Having grown up playing football, he went on to work as team physio for multiple local football clubs and provided physiotherapy coverage for Football Australia in both the A-League and Queensland Premier League — giving him extensive hands-on experience with running-related injuries, return-to-play protocols, and the demands of competitive sport.
Whether it's a shoulder that's stopping you from lifting your kids, a knee holding you back from your morning run, or recovery after surgery, Matt's approach is the same: understand what's really going on, treat it properly, and build a plan that gets you back to the life you want — with strength to spare.
Matt completes extensive further education every year, with recent focus areas including sports physiotherapy, strength and conditioning, shoulder pain and rehabilitation, men's health, and running-related injury and rehab.
Based at KC Health Services in Stafford Heights, Matt offers in-clinic physiotherapy, strength and conditioning, and rehabilitation, as well as home-visit physiotherapy across the surrounding area.
