MEASURED, NOT ASSUMED
Six milestones you can hold me to.
I use criteria, not time. I am so confident in your progress that I set dates with you from your start point, not your surgery date.
Month 1
Back in the gym
It's important to get you feeling good about your recovery from the get-go. So, I use my Strength & Conditioning skillset to have you back in the gym immediately from week 2.
Month 2
Quad back online
Full extension restored, swelling controlled and your quadriceps firing on demand. Because, it's the single biggest predictor of success.
Month 3
Return to jogging
A graded return to running starts once you have the strength & control we both agreed upon at the start.
Month 5
Return to jumping, hopping, sprinting & changing direction
Be explosive again. Jumping, hopping & sprinting with confidence while we work on your movement mechanics to prepare for a return to sport.
Month 9
Return to training
All your hard work was for this moment. Get a sport specific transition programme that takes you from rehabbing on the pitch or court back to your teammates/ coach.
Month 12
Return to performance
You are back to competing. The proof is in the pudding. You earned this with the strength, jumping, hopping, changing direction and training that checked off every criteria I threw at you! ACL Restored.

TESTIMONIALS
Dominic Richmond - Advanced Practice Knee Physiotherapist. UKSCA Accredited Strength & Conditioning coach.
I only treat knees. That focus is deliberate: it means I've assessed, diagnosed, and rehabilitated more ACL knees than most physios will see in a career.
Alongside The Knee Physio, I hold an advanced practice role in NHS orthopaedics, where I assess and list patients for surgery alongside my surgical colleagues. So, I understand the ACL journey in its entirety.
Turning up to physio is a tiny part of it. Getting back to peak performance, or achieving it for the first time, is something you achieve on your own. That is where my background is essential. My first degree in Sport and Exercise Science revolved around the biomechanics of injury prevention and eccentric training (all the rage today). I'm a UKSCA-accredited Strength & Conditioning coach, the industry standard for professional sport; less than 1% of registered physios have this. I've spent a decade on the gym floor and pitch with athletes, including university athletes, professional football and academy football.
A specialist knee physiotherapist and qualified S&C coach in one person is exactly what ACL rehabilitation needs, and it's rare. My services are for professional athletes in professional sports and anyone who is committed to returning to their best self.
I'm research-active through the orthopaedics team, working on multiple orthopaedic research studies and recently publishing on ACL rehabilitation and the poor standard we see across the globe. I am currently preparing my PhD application to address this very topic within public care. Until then, ACL Restore is the industry standard.
