Knee Pain Physical Therapy in Greenville, SC

Recovery time varies depending on the severity and cause of your knee pain. Many of our patients start feeling relief within 2-3 sessions, but a full recovery plan typically takes 6-12 weeks. During your free phone consultation and comprehensive evaluation, we'll give you a clear timeline based on your specific condition and goals. Our goal is to not only eliminate your pain but also strengthen your knee to prevent future injuries.

No! South Carolina allows direct access to physical therapy, which means you can schedule an appointment without a doctor's referral. You can book your free 20-minute phone consultation directly with us and start your journey to pain-free movement right away.

Every session at [re]living performance is 60 minutes of one-on-one time with Dr. Matt Paolillo, a Board Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist. You're not bouncing between therapists or doing exercises alone in a crowded gym. We take the time to identify the root cause of your knee pain through comprehensive evaluations, then create a personalized plan using manual therapy, dry needling, and progressive strengthening backed by the latest research. Our focus is simple: get you out of pain and back to doing what you love—stronger than before.

We are an out-of-network provider, which means we do not bill insurance directly. However, many of our patients receive partial or full reimbursement from their insurance company. We can provide you with a detailed superbill (receipt) that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. We recommend calling your insurance company to ask about out-of-network physical therapy benefits before your first visit.

Your first appointment will be the most comprehensive evaluation you've ever had. We'll take the time to understand your injury history, how knee pain is affecting your daily life and activities, and what your goals are. Then we'll assess your movement patterns, strength, mobility, and identify exactly what's causing your pain. From there, we'll create a clear, individualized plan to get you back to running, training, or simply moving without pain. Most patients leave their first session with a better understanding of their injury and a path forward.
